Exceptions to removing repeated filler words
Crystal Eydran
I love the ability to remove repeated filler words, but for some reason "mm-hmm" is counted as a repeated filler word and I have to manually remove each individual "mm-hmm" prior to running the "remove filler words" feature and it takes so much time.
Similar issue with "that", sometimes, it is actually grammatically correct to say "that, that" (i.e. something that, that has to do).
Being able to tell descript to treat "mm-hmm"s and all "that, that's" as an exception would be extremely helpful.

I especially would like this for repeated words. Occasionally, someone might say the same words back to back, but it actually makes sense to keep them in (i.e. "this happened over and over and over...", "we're seeing this more and more and more...", "they kept saying 'help us, help us, help us'...", "he would say that, that's right...") But having to manually delete potentially hundreds of filler/repeated words just because of a few intentional "false positives" is pretty annoying.
