We can possibly print WARNING message only with the 1st. thin LV which causes overprovisioining of thin-pool.
This should be ok, but it would not cover all use cases. For example, a thin snapshot taken, and removed, for backup purpose would repeatedly trigger the warning.
So, while more "intelligence" on when printing the warning on lvm side is welcomed, I really advocate for a simple command line option (or lvm.conf parameter) to skip the warning.
As for 'read-only' snapshot - it really doesn't matter - the overprovisioned pool can in the 'worst' case end in out-of-space condition (i.e. fully rewritten origin)
Sure, I was only describing a possible case where the warning is "redundant" (ie: because the admin know the snapshot will be short-lived).
