Perhaps have a way to disable selected warnings. something like some
compilers or lints allow pinpoint control of warnings.

Or perhaps easier for you and more general, have a configuration item in
the settings file that lets a user put in a set of regular expressions to
filter out before reporting.

I can understand where it's not considered a big deal, but to me it's like
compiler output - some people ignore warnings, but I like to have it
completely clean, because then it's trivial to spot real problems.
