Hi Michael,
I agree, the warnings are feature and not a bug. We shoudl
always
specify mapset, otherwise it could happen, that the user wilå
operate
with other map, than desired..

seems I'm being warned
that I'm doing what I intended to do. But others may
do the same thing
unintentionally, hence the warning.
