Follow-up Comment #3:

I see, I can reopen, but I'm not sure this is solvable.

Part of the expectation of PKG_ADD is that the directory has already been
added to the load path when the content runs. So by the time PKG_ADD would be
able to do something, the warnings have already been issued.

I think this would require some new marker in the directory that Octave's
load-path functions would handle internally, for example a .nowarn file or
something. And I'm not sure that's something we'd want to handle in Octave.
