I had a bug filed on this lack of warning: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796978, which it looks like Bob had a fix pushed for 3.4.
I don’t think I’ve tested it since. I’ll give it a go and see what happens. Ideally, the check for lack of an anchoring split shouldn’t happen till the user commits the transaction. If editing is still going on, the user might still add an anchoring split. But that would be another bug report or an RFE.
