OK, UX improvement.

"Ignore All" can't be reset. It only takes effect on the parsing this time.
That is: if you change layers which causes different parsing errors, and you ignore all.
Next time, if you change some layers which also causes some parsing errors, the dialog will also show until you click "ignore all".
