Right, but there's nothing to "restrict" because in this case we're talking about a warning not an error; generating a warning that default behavior will change in a future release. OpenVPN _should_ continue happily along its way no matter where the warning is generated. It's a pretty trivial point really, but may provide a template for future changes.
