How about we change the wording of the paragraph to be:
Some users have requested that by default the compiler report ALL potential programming problems. This will likely result in a LOT more compile warnings being reported for your Java code edited in Eclipse.

I would, but only because I now know what you mean by "more aggressively".
From the wording of the questions it wasn't clear that you are really asking about activating everything.
What if we do a dedicated survey only for the compiler checks, where we list the ones currently ignored (I counted 31)
and let the community state what severity they would prefer for which check?
Many of the checks are related to style and 'personal' preference and some of them effectively deactivate language features (e.g. auto boxing).
Just switching everything to a warning doesn't make sense.
Yes, so please vote „No“ then!
