But this would imply that the user need to have the expected semantics for those types and can only suppress false positives by removing some gsl:::owner/poinnter annotations.

This is exactly what is going to happen but I think it would be unfortunate to stall the progress until the new version of the spec materializes. The idea is to keep the implementations and the specs in sync, but as Herb has other projects too, it takes some time to channel the experience back into the spec. As the current version of the warnings found true positives in real world projects and we have yet to see any false positives I would prefer to move forward to maximize utility.
