SuppressMessageAttribute not working with namespaces

See original GitHub issue

I am trying to uses the GlobalSuppressions file to suppress a specific rule on a specific namespace on my test project, like so:

[assembly: System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Style", "CC0061", Scope = "namespace", Target = "CodeCracker.Test.Design", Justification = "No need for tests to have async sufix.")]

But it does not work. The diagnostic keeps being generated. The method specific works:

[assembly: System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Style", "CC0061:TaskNameAsyncAnalyzer", Justification = "No need for tests to have async sufix.", Scope = "member", Target = "~M:CodeCracker.Test.Design.CopyEventToVariableBeforeFireTests.IgnoreMemberAccess")]

I guess this is a bug, right?

Ok, this is insufficient. The ability to suppress a diagnostic on a specific namespace, including all its types, is really important. I am seeing that there is no way to do this today? May I suggest that feature? 😃

Ok, it makes sense not to break everyone. But how would then I suppress diagnostics against types inside the namespace? Is that at all possible? Or will I have to add each one individually? This would be really annoying.
