How would the warning be triggered? By the extension of the signature
file or by existence of a file without the .sig extension, or even some
other way?

If the warning is triggered by existence of a file without the .sig
extension, it does suggest to me that people should not rely on the
warning and thus always specify both the signature file and the signed
file on the command line. Because they might infer by absence of the
warning that the misnamed file has been verified, when the warning is
absent because GnuPG never noticed the misnamed file.
