I agree.

In some cases selling the palace is an 'emergency measure' and a warning
(another window, another click) can result in split. So this warning
should be optional if it exists (which I'm not for).

The player who wants to experiment what happens if he sells his palace may
know the next time that it's not a very good idea.
