So I have the slight suspicion that all this will accomplish is "shut the 
darn thing up", and old-timers will have a harder time, since they no 
longer spot easily when they did a Dumb Thing and left the index out of 
sync.

The hardest hit would be old-timers who try to be friendly by
trying to help new people, who has much less chance to notice
and report these much less prominent warnings, over e-mail or
irc.

True.  It is even bigger than that annoyance to people who know how git 
works.
