Description

It would be great if there were a toggle to disable diagnostics checking for the current buffer (or even atom instance). Sometimes I want to edit a file that I know my linter provider won't be able to compile, but I don't really care and I just want to edit the text without seeing 300 errors.

atom-linter offers this I believe, and it's the feature I miss the most when using diagnostics from atom-ide-ui instead.

Thank you!

Research direction
Explore the diagnostics implementation in the atom ide ui repository, focusing on files in the lib/diagnostics directory. Look for existing configuration or toggle mechanisms. Consider adding a simple setting or command to disable diagnostics for the current editor. Since the repository is archived, you may need to fork it or adapt the idea.
