Nice one.
I still think that using the term 'illicit' would cause less misunderstanding. I recognise that 'unlawful' ought to be the best word to use but I fear many may misconstrue it to imply a breach of criminal law when, as you and I both know, it implies no such thing.
I can't really criticise you for having the linguistic standards to stick with 'unlawful' though, since it is technically the best word for the job.
