Communicating what parameters are used in an unsafe way wouldn't be strictly necessary for the initial patch if the warning as is pushed the user to do the right thing.
Have we tried getting data from a real project?
I can also imagine that for some functions it won't be as simple as saying "pointer parameter 1, 3 and 5" as it could be interplay between pointers, integer parameters and buffer content.
