obey is v.t. so "do not obey a scissors line" would be grammatical; I
think "ignore scissors lines" would be better.

Ditto; also it is useful in general if you do not know which way it is
configured.  Saying "_only_" is misleading.

	Ignore scissors lines; useful for overriding mailinfo.scissors
	settings.

Do we want it to allow --no-no-scissors?  I do not think this hunk is
necessary at all.
