I have a thought last night about this - how about we keep PERMISSIVE=1 as the
default but offer a "very permissive" mode:

PERMISSIVE=2 (or more), silently ignore problems, continue parsing.
PERMISSIVE=1 (or True), use stderr via the warning module, continue parsing.
PERMISSIVE=0 (or False), raise exceptions, halt parsing.

It would ofter an alternative way to silence the warnings in the unit tests,
and could be controlled at the level of individual tests - for example where we
want to make sure certain errors are caught.

It might also be useful in ordinary scripts.
