Yes, properties are the way to go IMO. Note that there=E2=80=99s already one or two checker-specific properties, s= uch as =E2=80=98lint-hidden-cve=E2=80=99. We could add more of that if needed. A higher-level =E2=80=98lint-silenced-checkers=E2=80=99 property like you p= ropose (I think that=E2=80=99s a better name) would also be welcome. It=E2=80=99s incidentally a good programming task to get started; who=E2=80= =99s in? :-) Ludo=E2=80=99.
