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.
