I'm generally in favor of not BUGing out for no good reason, but what
is e.g. an admin (or user) supposed to do when he sees this message?
Same for the other rather cryptic WARNs - they contain no actionable
information, and are most likely going to be ignored as "debug spam".
IMHO things that can be ignored can be deleted.

thanks,
