Joining paths vs groups, graphs and text paths in Adobe Illustrator

What a bummer when we try to join two paths and Ai comes up with the following dialog:

Wouldn't it be great when Ai understands that we really want to join two paths, and offers to fix this for us?
It can take a lot of time to investigate what exactly causes the problem, while Ai itself probably knows exacly what the problem is.

Two solutions would be great:
-Let us choose to: release text paths, groups and graphs to join the two paths to achieve the result we want, or to leave everything untouched.
-Give a detailed error message: tell what exaclty blocks Ai from joining: textpath, OR group, OR graph.
