FreeCAD has gotten a little better with warnings (back then clicking the middle mouse on an empty spot triggered a warning
). I expect it will keep improving and we should be getting more meaningful warnings. I think the ideal solution is as is proposed here to show them by default but continue to work in making them more meaningful, the notifications system is much less intrusive than the report view so it is acceptable.
The links go out of allowed scope warning is one such case that needs better wording and shouldn't be triggered at all in some cases, for example:

I as developer of course look at warnings. And the discussion here is not about outputting warnings. It is whether to bother every user by default with every warning as popup or to let interested and expert users decide on their own to see warnings or not.
but dealing with warnings is not just for advanced users
Nothing else is the question here and we decided this for 0.20 already.
but the situation has changed, the report view was intrusive and required you to go an manually close it every time, the notifications can just be dismissed or ignored.
