Disagree. Stop signs, if used, should be used with caution. I don't care if everyone in the gym knows he's been warned, as long as he knows and my partners know.

Last night, home coach is upset we're calling some light fouls, and during a free throw (in the first half) starts going on and on to his kids about how they can't touch them because the refs are calling touch fouls. I'm lead, glance over and he's about 3 feet from the endline.

I turn, "Coach, please get back into your box." That was his warning, and he got it; coached his kids the rest of the game.

Maybe, maybe not. If he rolls right through your warning, yes. If the next incident is very minor, probably not. That's why I don't want to say, "Next one..." and box myself in.
