Comment (by melchoyce):

 Okay... here's what I'm thinking :)

 When you first visit either `theme-editor.php` or `plugin-editor.php`, you
 see [attachment:WF - Interstitial.png], which warns you about the code
 editors and makes you write "I understand" to proceed. Once you do this,
 your user never sees it again.

 If we want to present additional warnings, we can frame them as "tips."
 See [attachment:WF - CSS Warning.png] for an example. These tips will be
 dismissible notifications that only appear once. Once you dismiss them,
 they're gone.

 Does this seem reasonable?
