I have a fundamental aversion to making functionality like this new

Personally, I want my script to fail if I use a regexp that deserves
a warning.
Me too, but this would be against POSIX, and I think it is also
borderline to remove the warning only for POSIXLY_CORRECT. But I agree
we can say in NEWS that the default for --warn may be changed in the
future, just in case.
- dfawarn ("character classes syntax is [[:space:]], not [:space:]");
+ dfawarn ("character class syntax is [[:space:]], not [:space:]");
You're the native speaker, so I'm not going to complain. :)
You're welcome to push the amended patchset!
