This topic seems to be somewhat two-folded. On the one side you want
to reduce the number of unnecessary conflicts. On the other side
you want to make sure you dont miss any real conflict.

How about a middle-way:

To reduce unnecessary conflicts apply the v.a.p. as described in Karl's
paper. To get the warnings, dump the potentially dangerous hunks along
with their patch-results into some "patch.warnings" file and give a
warning.

This way it would be very easy to check whether the v.a.p. did what you
want.
