When I do:
select oprname, oprcode, provolatile from pg_operator , pg_proc where
pg_proc.oid::regclass = oprcode and provolatile <> 'i';
There are a bunch of operators related to TIMESTAMPTZ and full text
search that are marked as STABLE.
I don't know what the guidelines are for using a WARNING, but the
examples that come to mind are generally things that can be fixed. For
instance, if you get a WARNING for using non-standard backslash escapes,
you can fix it by using E''.
However, I agree that forgetting to mark functions correctly is a pretty
significant problem.
