I don't really get the point. It seems to me that the idea is to have warnings optionally on during development, always off during production. Most development, especially of 'permanent' code, does not take place at the interactive prompt.
This reasoning seems backwards to me. It doesn't matter whether there is also code being developed non-interactively; the question is, for that code which *is* developed interactively, should warnings be visible by default. BTW, the people around me seem to be developing possibly a majority of their code these days by starting out iteratively refining stuff using the ipython notebook as a REPL. -- Nathaniel J.
