I understand your point, and that's why my suggestion would be that the 
compiler has flag to relax (warnings as warnings) when sketching the 
code :) (sure it is just the same if compiler is relaxed or strict by 
default, but the whole point is if the warnings are needed or not).

The current DMD -release -flag would be good point to turn warnings to 
errors, but unfortunately it removes runtime checks :(
