I think it far more likely that someone will notice water flowing

It depends where the external warning/overflow pipe is situated: if it's in
an out-of-the-way place and/or it's winter and no-one goes out where it's
situated then it can **** away for months before anyone notices. OTOH as
people have pointed out the equivalent of a slow drip from a pipe is all
but invisible when it's down the pan, but when/if it gets to a higher rate
it's more likely to be noticeable.
