Use `#[allow(clippy::enum_variant_names)]` on a enum variant

help
1

Here is my problem. I have the following type.

enum Shell {
    Bash,
    Elvish,
    Fish,
    PowerShell,
    Zsh
}

This type does trigger the clippy::enum_variant_name warning because PowerShell does end with Shell which is the name of the type itself.

warning: variant name ends with the enum's name
  --> fofil-cli/src/cli.rs:40:5

40 |     PowerShell,
   |     ^^^^^^^^^^
   |
   = note: `#[warn(clippy::enum_variant_names)]` on by default

I understand the clippy and it definitely looks like a good example where I should temporarily deactivate clippy. However, it seems I cannot do the following:

enum Shell {
    Bash,
    Elvish,
    Fish,
    #[allow(clippy::enum_variant_names)]
    PowerShell,
    Zsh
}

but I have to deactivate the lint on the entire type like this:

#[allow(clippy::enum_variant_names)]
pub enum Shell {
    Bash,
    Elvish,
    Fish,
    PowerShell,
    Zsh,
}

which is a wider scope that I ideally need. Did I miss something that would make it narrower? Or am I looking for something that is not possible at the moment (I can live with that)?
