I think that warning categories are a library feature: they are mentioned in the library documentation, and not mentioned in the reference manual (in fact, only a single warning *is* mentioned in the reference manual, namely that exceptions in __del__ are printed - which actually doesn't use the warnings module). If it is the library feature, then it is exempt from the moratorium: Allowed to Change The standard library As the standard library is not directly tied to the language definition it is not covered by this moratorium.
