This warning has never worked properly and now that warnings stop execution
it is a real pain.

Every time I need a root modifier in an object that appears more than once
in a scene I have to disable warnings stopping execution to get anything to
display.

I have never found it useful as if I do actually have two root modifiers it
is obvious which one is active from what is drawn.

As you already have an open issue on this, perhaps add a comment there to strengthen your argument:
