Debian has been doing it since time immortal as well with a tool called 'lintian'.  One _really_ useful feature is a whitelist one can add per-package.  Its format is really simple:  one item per row, and the item is the warning message.   So before counting / printing the warning, the override file is checked.\r\n\r\nI think we should brainstorm how to support that. Maybe a file `inst/rccmdcheck.overrides.txt` ?  And in the output structure then have whitelist-adjusted counts?
