I dunno. That is exactly why the new message is crafted to convey: "you have an entry with an unsupported value in your configuration file, which you may want to inspect and possibly correct it; in the meantime we've ignored that entry". "ignored" is the key word.
If we say "we later found this good value so we'd use it", it may become confusing, as we'd never issue such a notice for a last-one-wins variable that do not use any unsupported values, but we are not doing that, so I think there is no room for confusion.
