IMO, removing it would be a regression.  Either we should have a
separate setting for warning about missing sectioning commands, or the
warning should stay (or be replaced by a smarter one, like I wrote in
my previous message).

Most Texinfo manuals are intended to have a sectioning command in each
node, so this warning catches mistakes and is thus IMO valuable in a
vast majority of cases.
