I'm not sure that's a good idea. For example when you rename a folder or file, you dont get a warning saying any shortcuts or links to that folder or file will break. Also not everyone uses links but calibre has no way to know if you are using them or not. On the other hand renaming libraries is (hopefully) not a common poeration, so an extra warning is not too big of a burden.
