Given that @footnote and @verb don't work properly inside @w and the
using @pxref inside @w isn't something that document authors particularly
want to do, and that the nesting only issues a warning not an error,
so it will not actually break any documents, just warn the authors, then
I think it is fine to keep all the warnings as they are.

Patrice, is there a need for the contain_simple_text flag in
command_data.txt?  I see in ParserNonXS.pm other commands have
this hard-coded, e.g. @shortcaption and @math - the same in
Texinfo/XS/parsetexi/parser.c (check_valid_nesting).

It would seem like a simple change to treat @w the same as @shortcaption
and @math here.
