Ah yes of course, that sounds even better.
If warning and errors messages are defined correctly (as they should),
then that is just fine; warnings can be silently ignored.

But otherwise, that is what is wrong about the way -Sp and -Sw are
currently implemented : it is full of special case handling everywhere
in the code. And trying to fix that is.. impossible.
