Comment(by ktp):

 I second that! This is the attitude which will bring every project down.
 Some devs seem to need this godlike feeling to have the power over their
 users. But they forget that they are nothing without their users. One
 thing for sure: If this will be the attitude in the whole project I will
 switch to another messenger. There are enough promising projects around...
 for windows and linux.

 Look for Ticket 8226 where the title says "does not warn" is marked as
 fixed by just disallowing. Guess who fixed this bug.
