A project that I work on has a (formal) requirement that use-clauses
must restrict imported symbols via "only". (However, many contributors
simply ignore that rule, since the compiler used does not complain.)
g95 provides -Wunused-module-procs and -Wunused-module-vars to
provide this diagnostics which is what I use for "cleaning up".
I do not consider this useless diagnostics.
Obviously, this only works as long as the code is still compilable by g95 ...
