While I'm not familiar with the Squeak version, Smalllint does have the
ability to ignore failures. The BasicLintRule class has a class variable
FilterDictionary that contains a dictionary mapping the lint rule name
to a BrowserEnvironment of methods/classes to ignore. In the VW, VA, &
Dolphin versions, there are filter menu options that display when you
are viewing the lint rule results. There are also options to save/load
the filters to files. I'm guessing that Squeak is just missing this menu
options that expose the functionality.
