Is the point of the warning to avoid liability or to actually inform the users? If you tell people everything causes cancer (instead of only saying when you've verified it doesn't), soon enough they're going to stop caring when you say stuff like, "don't eat asbestos, that causes cancer". I think a "checkmark" system makes more sense—for verified accounts/developers, put a checkmark near their name, and for unverified ones, have nothing. There's no reason to cause alarm when 99% of the time the alarm is misfounded.
