My thought was that it's better to have something always available, that has a decent chance of being "good enough" in a lot of cases (and if it's good enough for you, just silence the warning), than to noisily fail because we can't provide a perfect solution due to political idiocy. Or worse, to silently be wrong because someone assumed we had provided a perfect solution without looking too hard.
We can, and should, mention potential pitfalls in the documentation.
But I don't think a warning is warranted, anymore than for other known issues (there are many of them at http://bugs.python.org/ :-)).
Regards
Antoine.
