If that is the idea, then <warnings>all must mean -Wall -Wextra
-pedantic with some other -W... that must be included by hand, for gcc.
(I don't know if that's the case.)

What I mean is, "all" here, as in -Wall, doesn't actually mean
"absolutely all possible".

-Wall for gcc is almost -Wdefault.

I suggest keeping <warnings>all as "absolutely all" and adding, as
suggested before, a <warnings>default to mean the equivalent of -Wall
for gcc.
