Rust on lower fork bracket

[PowderToastMan_imp]

I have a few tiny specs forming on my forks where the travel area is (probably not good!) and quite a bit more above the bracket that attaches the forks to the triple tree.
In the travel area you have to look really closely to see it, from a couple feet away it looks good and clean.
Some but not all of the upper stuff came off with just a wet towel followed by a dry towel wipe down, but the smaller bits stayed.

I'm wondering if I should run to the dealer and see if they can take care of it under warranty or at least at a discount (then put some gaiters on the damn things!!).
I think it's small enough that it would take a long time to cause weeping of the fork seals (these things are much beefier than the ones on the bikes I've owned before) so if they tell me it's my problem and not theirs, then I will probably take extra care to keep it wiped down, let it go until it starts to eat at the seals, then get them resurfaced and put gaiters on.
