I'm responding as a user/implementor, not speaking for the editors.

For what it's worth, I prefer that an implementation be allowed to do any
of the following for each violation it detects:

  * reject the program prior to execution,

  * issue a warning prior to execution and either abort or raise an
    exception at run time, or

  * raise an exception at run time.

To be clear, in cases where an implementation is required to raise an
exception with condition &violation, I prefer that the implementation not
be permitted to abort at run time unless it issued a warning for that
specific violation prior to executing the program.

Then this reduces to a quality of implementation issue---users can pick
the implementation that most often exhibits the behavior they like.
