New description:

 Would it be possible to add flag to disable warnings for
 unitialized fields just when using constructor with
 zero fields? I mean, if I use

 {{{
   Foo {}
 }}}

 to construct empty record, it is a bit unpleasant that
 I get flooded by dozens of useless warnings; but I don't
 want to disable them -- they are useful when I forget
 to initialize some field(s).

Comment:

 Not clear if this is a good idea, but we'll leave it here anyway.
