Never seen this before when I used openSUSE, which I use since S.u.S.E 6.0
or so till as recently as 13.1 last month.

This is not an option for _me_ for various reasons:
1) The OS should adapt to me, I should not adapt to the OS. Otherwise I
just buy a pre-installed PC with Windows or Mac and be done with it.
2) gvim was just an example. Many programs have the same issue. In fact
there are more that have the issue then there are that don't. gvim might
be the one that I use most from the terminal, but other certainly do
qualify as well.

I do this with the workaround with the alias. However that will also hide
errors and not only warnings. Same goes if I would just ignore them.

How would I set the variables and/or reset the dconf permissions? And what
would that result in? And what variables should I set?

I used openSUSE where I did not have the issue. When I first ran debian I
think I did not had the issue, but I am not sure. Not sure where it comes
from, but openSUSE does something different that makes it I do not see
these warnings.
