I wonder if we should generalize this and move the warnings outside the result.
The warnings could go in the response headers for example as a LIST of STRING.

The result output would be something like:

{
    "outcome" : "success",
    "result" : { … }
    "response-headers" : [{
        "warnings" : [
           “warning 1”,
           “warning 2”
        ]
    }]
}

This would help our clients (CLI and HAL) handle them appropriately regardless of the invoked operation. And this would not “pollute” the operation’s result type.
