In general I think thats a good idea.
However do not get too detailed. We are about to do quite a lot of work 
to the UI templates in just about the entire core, so if you wrote it 
now then chances are it would be obsolete by 1.0.

In general changing a class should affect all text of that type 
throughout the UI, not just in a particular module.
If you only want to change a particular module then you would have to 
override the templates for that module in your theme and change the 
class they use.
