Would it be possible to place a label above the button saying "Submit
for final approval" and then make the button only say "Submit"? I've
seen many Internet interfaces that do something similar. Just a
possibility that would prevent the sentence filled button.

approval," but obviously that's too long. "Final >approval" sounds as
though the user is approving it >himself.
