Strongly against that. I do *not* want Werrror enabled during development. I have a lot of warnings enabled, but while
hackingI often have some of them triggering (e.g. an unused variable or static function). Preventing me from compiling
inthose scenarios has no benefits. Werror it's useful in automated scenarios (e.g. my pre push script compiles with
it),a lot less in interactive scenarios where you can just use make -s.
