I believe -Werror is appropriate for .src.rpm as only .arch.rpm is what is being shipped to the real users. -Werror is only of concern to the package maintainer who should keep warnings under control. -Werror is probably the most easy way to keep them non-regressing. One can only argue -Werror is not appropriate for rpmbuild --rebuild by users. But they will see new warnings only in non-standardard distro/environment/configuration, such advanced users should be aware of everything how to deal with it anyway.
