I would rather say it's manual tuning rather than a break.

I don't think there even should be warning. Just don't
change the info/config.worktree in the existing repositories
and let users extend it as they feel a need for it.

Later there could be a tool (an option to git config for
example) which adds a variable or pattern to the
info/core.worktree and copied existing variable(s) from
commong config to worktree-specific ones.

Is `config_filename` set only for cases when config file is
explicitly set for "git config" command with "--file"
option? Then probably here should not be any intelligence at
all; if user resort to manual picking the file he must be
allowed to do stupid things.
