Fair enough. That's why I am not asking to make this the default behavior,
but either a config value or a command line option, which demotes the
error&die to a warning.

It is impractical indeed. The skip rules would be huge and tedious to
create in a trial and error approach.
In case of symbolic links, skip seems to look at the name of the link only,
not at the name of the link target. In my scenario, if only one directory
tree is unreadable, but is pointed to by a large number of links, I'd have
to create skip rules for all these links.
