Re: ispell-buffer skips repetitive suspects after the first is accepted

[Francis Belliveau <f.belliveau@comcast.net>]

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:-)
