Good idea. I added this an example for an IDE QuickFix item. Just install the package lazarusdir/examples/idequickfix/quickfixexample.lpk and you can now fix 'parameter Sender not used' messages easily by right clicking.

Re: [lazarus] Parameter not used ...
Just to confirm: the Assert workaround with assertions turned off will avoid the hint AND will not generate code, right? If so, this is better than any other workaround! But anyway it would be nicer if FPC could have a flag to ignore this specific hint when the parameter is a specific string (Sender in this case).

When I compile a Lazarus project from the command line I get a HINT for
every parameter not used in the method. This is ok if it is my method,
but methods used by events must have these parameters to work. I know I
can use the {$HINTS OFF} option to disable all hints, but that is not
really a good idea. Is there any way to disable only that one specific hint?
not really what you are asking but ...
i've noted, in bits of sample source, that some people do :
if(Sender = Nil) Then ;
... at the top of the event procedure.
it took me a little while to realize why people were putting this into
their event procedures.
it seems strange to me to inject extra ops into your code to avoid a
compiler hint ... but what do i know.

in C they do just sender;, much worse :)

yeah.. weird :)
That hint about unused parameters is well-meant, but it will just always
spam the programmer with spurious things :)
It probably would be nice to be able to turn them (only them) off as a
compiler setting, yeah... (and, arguably, those hints turned off by
default)

Ideally this hint would be disabled for all methods in the published
sections and enabled for those in the public, protected and private
sections.
