About that, I always personally found moronic the warning message when you mount c:\. I of course understand why people who never used DOS before could be confused and it's always better for a programmer to protect himself with those warnings... But I'm pretty sure oldschoolers like me think the same thing.
There is no difference at all in DOSBox execution if you mount your c:\ drive, and there is no more danger in execution than if you're mounting any other subfolder...
If you never use the delete command in DOSBox, I suggest to everybody who is listening to downright mount their c:\ drive directly. I simply can't fathom how you could destroy your hard disk using DOSBox if you don't to it directly yourself with a command... And it might also prevent errors the user have no way to understand.
