With hindsight I'd say you are correct.

In that case would it maybe have been better to have a build time warning
about the need to convert drivers rather than a run time one? Run time
warnings have a much higher annoyance factor and will thus "invite" more
people into having a shot at getting rid of them.

But I guess partly it's also just the nature of this change: it looks
trivial due to the corresponding terms.
