I think a warning message is a terrible idea, and a system view is a
needless complication. If the patch is as fast or faster than what we
have now in all cases, then we should adopt it (assuming it's also
correct and well-commented and all that other good stuff). If it's
not, then we need to analyze the cases where it's slower and decide
whether they are significant enough to care about.
