We don't typically add new diagnostics that are off by default (though this one is in `-Wextra` so it has a chance of being enabled by users). I actually wonder if we want to enable this by default; the standard makes this an obsolescent feature (see C23 6.11.5p1) and so having an on-by-default warning actually helps alert users to potential future code breakage.
My intuition is that this would not be an overly chatty diagnostic to enable by default; do you have access to a large corpus of C code you could try to compile with your patch?
