This isn't recent. Assuming by interactive mode you mean prompting 
for entity-name (DN) fields and other request attributes, this is 
driven BY the config file, and that's exactly why a config file 
is needed with -new and has been at least 5 years.

What is recent is 1.0.0 gives the warning even when it DOESN'T 
need the config file i.e. without -new (but continues okay).
