Yes, but this is a bit different. In this case we compare the
translated value (so if we got ignored in swscale because we tried to
set 1 for full range for RGB, that by itself is not a warning).

This will only warn if you f.ex. tried to set the value of limited
range for RGB, and then as we translate swscale's internal value of 0
to 1 for RGB, you would get a warning since limited range RGB is not
actually supported.

Of course, me or someone else might have found this a bit more quickly
if sws_setColorspaceDetails would indeed log a warning when it would
override the value pushed to it. Alternatively, this could be
partially fixed if sws_getColorspaceDetails would translate the
internal value to 1 for RGB after taking it in from the internal
configuration. Then the API user wouldn't have to translate the value
for RGB to match how swscale assumes things to be.

I am just not sure how deep I want to jump into swscale with this.
