As an aside, I found this message to be rather confusing, too easy to
misread as "Loading tape foo now" and misinterpret it as a status update
as opposed to it telling you to go do something. :-)  Maybe it's just
me, but "You should rewind and load tape foo now and then hit Y to
continue" would be a bit more wordy, but much clearer.
