That‘s great if they’re adding a warning for modules, but it'd be even better if it would warn about any missing files not just modules. For example, extra-source-files that are used for tests. That's probably hard to make a warning for without duplicating builds, but perhaps instead of a warning build should actually do sdist && build dist/*.tar.gz. Might be slow though.
