This is all sounding eerily familiar. Indeed:

  $ git log --oneline -Swarn_unconfigured_push -- builtin-push.c
  bba0fd2 push: do not give big warning when no preference is configured
  665d3e8 Display warning for default git push with no push.default config

I don't remember the mailing list conversations that surrounded those
patches, but if we are going to have the same conversation again, maybe
it is worth looking them up.
