In lintian, a quality assurance utility for Debian packages, there is a
facility called "overrides", where you can whitelist particular
complaints from lintian as being spurious (ignorable).

Does drhaskell have a similar facility?  For example, you might want an
whitelist entry like

    # Non-obvious symmetry that drhaskell didn't detect.
    Foo.Bar.f: eta reduction

Like -Wno-eta-reduction?  And possibly a per-project (./drhaskellrc) and
per-user (~/.drhaskellrc) defaults?
