FWIW:
I don't really have an opinion either way. Some people are going
to find it annoying if they are too many forks going on (unlikely?),
while some others might have their life saved by it (but that's
provided we keep the number of warnings small).

We could introduce message without a setting for now - the fewer,
the better (IMO). And if people complain about it, then introduce
one to prevent from being printed if the user so wishes...
