Would like this bug reopened.  All of the requested modifications I had with one 
exception have been added, and I thank you. 
 
While you are right that the -Wall functionality is implicit, I would like this actually 
STATED.  That is, I would like the wording to change from: 
'All warnings below, combined' 
to: 
'All warnings below, combined (-Wall)' 
 
It was not clear to me that this is what the checkbox does. 
 
Additionally, it would be useful to somehow indicate that the Warnings I page contains 
the 'safe' warnings, i.e. warnings contained in -Wall, and that the Warnings II page 
contains options that do not fit into gcc's definition of 'warnings about constructions 
that some users consider questionable, and that are easy to avoid (or modify to 
prevent the warnings), even in conjunction with macros' (from gcc info page). 
 
I do not know the best way to notify the user that this is the intention of the Warnings I 
and Warnings II pages but I did not realise this until today.
