You mean if you install the boot loader itself into a partition containing such a filesystem? grub-setup already emits fairly noisy warnings when you install to a partition containing a filesystem, which are intended to cover pretty much this kind of thing. If people are ignoring the existing warnings, it's not clear to me how adding more warnings would help.
