This is clearly an intended feature. I am personally annoyed by the inability
to indicate something suspicious is valid for a particular document. I do not
want such things added to my dictionary because they are likely not valid for
other documents.
That said I can understand how this would not be liked by all. If a bug report
is filed, I would hope that it is solved by configuration choice, rather than
just forcing everybody to accept it the other way.
That’s my opinion and I am sticking with it:-)
