Otared has already replied what I was thinking: would it be possible,
for a certain period of time, to not stop compilation, but flag the
issue on the console? When you say that such changes won't happen
suddenly, this would be a wonderful compromise for me. My consolidated
bibtex database began its life many many years ago, when bibtex was
still pure 7bit, and you had to pepper your sources with all sorts of
silly workarounds in order to get accents and umlauts and whatever you
wanted. Those were the days - barefoot through the snow, and it was
uphill both ways...
So how did you do the greek then?
I played a bit with an alternative implementation (same commands): less
hash and mem, delegate more to lua. That way we can a less cost issue
such a message (once only of course). There is of course a price to pay
% .16 sec per 100000 \"u : old method (more mkii-ish)
% .25 sec per 100000 \"u : new method (more lmtx-ish)
(actually with mkii in pdftex we need .3 seconds, xetex freezes with
100K but needs 0.53 for 10K, luatex needs 0.18)
but I'm sure you don't care much about that so I just implements a
variant with warning which takes .19 seconds per 100K so it's a nice
compromise. (Probably less than half of that time on your machine.)

(The old school narative is that context is slow, which is why we need
to keep an eye on performance, right?)
