Those are two very different things. \' is easy to get around and
there's no very good reason not to send '' instead. But avoiding all
use of \anything is impossible (think \\) so a non-suppressable warning
for that would be quite unacceptable IMHO. I think it's much too early
to be throwing a warning for \anything anyway. 8.2 or so, OK, but not
in this cycle.
