Ignore Button that will auto create a policy

In turbonomic, if an application owner identifies a Volume or VM, etc, that they would never want to do.  It would be amazing if there was an ignore button that the Administrator could click on and it would auto-create a policy to ignore that one particular item.  

Current alternative, a policy could be manually created by the Administrator but would need to define unique attributes, in order to ignore through a policy.  

And if this does become a feature, there should be a mandatory explanation comment as to why it is being ignored.

The ignore button should only be used for specific one-offs and should be done on an individual instance/volume basis.  Should not be a mass ignore.  Mass ignores should be handled through policies.
