Same here.  This lets the application specify globally what should
happen (exception, warning, ignore via the warnings filters) and should
give enough context that it doesn't become a mysterious error in the
program.

The per method addition of an errors argument so that this isoverridable
locally as well as globally is also a nice touch but can be done
separately from this step.
