I think Ezio was suggesting just turning warnings on by default when 
unittest is run, not turning them into errors. Ezio is suggesting that 
developers could explicitly turn warnings off again, but when you use 
the default test runner warnings would be shown. His logic is that 
warnings are for developers, and so are tests...
