I still favor -Werror. It helps catch real errors, and you can
usually work around any spurious warnings (at least with gcc). In the
(hopefully limited) situations where -Werror really is a problem,
there's always --disable-error-on-warning.
However, that said, I wouldn't be opposed to changing the set of
warning options or even disabling -Werror by default in particular
situations.
