I'm not sure as the above can happen in normal conditions, although
removing and re-adding queues very shortly might be questionable? On the
other hand I get your point and that might not happen very frequently
under normal conditions and that's just because I'm hammering the thing
for testing.

It feel a bit weird to warn something that is not unexpected behavior,
but if you still prefer having a warn_once for better UX I can add it,
let me know.
