allow ingredients withou amount

[mkaut]

In many recipes, the amount of seasoning (salt, pepper, etc) is often unspecified, with the understanding that this means "according to your taste".
If I do this in the Cookbook, the ingredient gets marked with an exclamation mark and a warning that it cannot be recalculated - which i only annoying - it is kind of obvious that if there is no number, it does not get recalculated, there is no need for a warning.

Could we get an option for removing the warning?

Yep, just ran into this myself. I'd rather not have to explain that the error is fine to ignore.

Yeah, the point is that the recalculation might fail in other situations as well. This exclamation mark is a warning that the line was not parsable. However, one could add a config option to disable it.

@christianlupus I'm not sure how hard it'd be but, extending the data model (and parser) to support ranges and optional/unparsable quantity would be awesome.
