I can only agree with Zhao and Andreas here. If you want to turn a warning flag on, you have to eliminate the warnings first.

Otherwise you're just drowning the existing and typically more serious warnings in a sea of new warnings. The result is obvious: people will just ignore *all* warnigns then, and that's worse.
