Well, I would divide only into two categories: "don't care" and
"false-positive".

Most (all?) "don't care" tags are pedantic, but not all pedantic are
"don't care".

For example, currently "debian-watch-does-not-check-gpg-signature" is
pedantic, but I consider it error, unless it is false-positive.

I'd prefer opt-out approach to opt-in, to not miss something useful.
This bug is about making it simplier.
