Two blocks separated only by a declaration seems unusual.
I would suggest just a single block.

I wonder if this can trigger somehow.  For example, if a Python
programmer makes a Parameter under 'maint set' that is in an unexpected
command class.
I think it would be safer perhaps to just avoid the notification if the
prefixlist is not setlist.
