I agree that the proposed solution looks good.

While I agree that raising a warning makes sense I don't believe it
should be forced. There may be cases where, even in security definer
functions, the current search_path should be used (though, of course,
care must be taken in writing such functions).
I agree...I'm just suggesting to make you explicitly write 'PATH NONE'
for security definer functions because of the security risk...just a
thought though.
