We've got a very common scenario where string literals are used to contain big SQL queries.

Crucially, the style guide for SQL & R differ in that the former's max line width is 100, the latter 80.

Moreover, to skip only one such line we've got to somewhat awkwardly inject the nolint tag inside the SQL:

query <- "
  SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN some_column > 5 THEN 5 ELSE some_column END) AS output_column -- # nolint
"

It seems to me the best solution here is to simply ignore string literal "bodies", perhaps with an option.

Happy to implement this if others agree.
