What is the warning you want to give out, in which situations/conditions and is there any way/option/parameter to override it on the commandline in a automated/scripted way?
Uh oh, not what I meant.
A warning message is OK under certain circumstances. Changing program behaviour is NOT OK (and will be vetoed).
That said, you're right that a warning message for a perfectly working flashrom does not really make sense. OTOH, warning the user before he/she trashes the system is a good idea, and that is best done during read, not only if everything already failed.
