Is there a way to suppress JSHint warning for one given line?

Yes, there is a way. Two in fact. In October 2013 jshint added a way to ignore blocks of code like this:

// Code here will be linted with JSHint.
/* jshint ignore:start */
// Code here will be ignored by JSHint.
/* jshint ignore:end */
// Code here will be linted with JSHint.

You can also ignore a single line with a trailing comment like this:

ignoreThis(); // jshint ignore:line

The "evil" answer did not work for me. Instead, I used what was recommended on the JSHints docs page. If you know the warning that is thrown, you can turn it off for a block of code. For example, I am using some third party code that does not use camel case functions, yet my JSHint rules require it, which led to a warning. To silence it, I wrote:

/*jshint -W106 */
save_state(id);
/*jshint +W106 */
