Ross,
The brake warning light should come on when you have the parking brake applied, even just up one click. If it doesn't, it needs to be adjusted. That reminder light was put there to prevent anyone from doing what you described.
My '87 has ventilated rotors, and I think Saab went to those because the solid rotors of previous years did have trouble with heat dissipation and warping. I can see how your rotors got warped from the effects of normal braking, but not from using the emergency brake... are you sure that's what caused your rotors to warp? (I had a 1980 Honda Accord LX that warped its front rotors -- it had a rear emergency brake.) I'm just curious if you're sure that's what caused your rotors to warp.
