Everyone seems to agree, a solution needs to be found to allow us to keep certain areas warning free. This issue is too important, and too much time was spent, to allow it to regress to the state it was in a few years ago.
It is true that selective use of -Werror does not play well with the new build and the desire to compile as much as possible at any time, possibly using sjavac.
I have previously reported on a utility I've written in the past to analyze java code and report on the different types of warnings found in different packages. I'm sure we could take something like that utility and improve it to the point where it can give errors when entries in the matrix which should be empty are not.
This utility could be run as a "test" meaning it needn't break the build but the info is available for those that want to run it.
