What, specifically, are we considering trivial?

The whole point of repoman is to prevent devs from making mistakes.
Being able to turn off warnings is counterproductive.  Eliminating
warnings that don't need to be warnings is of course fine.

There is no value in having an escalating battle between warnings and
options to suppress them.
