What version of Snort are you using?  The latest version has event_filters
that may do exactly what you want.  Check out the README.filters for more.

binary
to me....unless there¹s a more granular level of control that I¹m
missing.

You're not alone with this kind of feeling. I have it too. And I'm
ignoring much of the portscan alerts, unless the statistical alert
picture changes.
