Per-document spelling exceptions

[fshowalter]

Hi,

As a long-time Vale user, my accept.txt has grown quite large with assorted names added to pass the spelling rule. The trouble is, most of these terms are only valid for a single file and should flag as a spelling error in others. For example, "Yor" is usually a typo, unless you're talking about the hunter from the future.

I understand we want vocabularies to be global to promote consistency, but that doesn't seem to scale with spelling exceptions, which are often local to a document. Vale provides a mechanism to turn off specific rules inline, but doesn't appear to offer a mechanism to define inline vocabulary additions.

How might we solve this? Extend comments to accept more than just a YES or NO? This may prove problematic for parsing, but I'll defer to @jdkato. In an ideal world, I'd be able to add some custom yaml to a markdown file, something like:

vocab-accept:
 - Yor

Or something similar for per-document exceptions. Thoughts?

In v3.0, you'll be able to activate (or deactivate) vocabularies in the same manner that you can currently with styles in your .vale.ini. So, while not exactly what you're suggesting here, it will be much easier to configure for specific files soon.

So we could have a central accept file then assorted one-offs we configure via the ini? If so, can said files live beside our content? (I.e outside the vale dir. Say I have content/some-markdown.md and content/some-markdown.vocab and in the ini I say content/some-markdown.vocab should be used with content/some-markdown.md, referencing them by full path?) This would solve for one-offs AND the "bloated file" problem.
