Shouldn't it be an exception rather than a warning? The fact that an exception can be downgraded to a warning (and thus involuntarily silenced) is a bit disturbing IMHO. Another possibility would be to display the warning, and then to encode the exception message again in "replace" or "ignore" mode rather than "strict" mode. That way exception messages are always displayed, but not always properly. The ASCII part of the message is generally useful, since it gives the exception name and most often the reason too.
