quanteda v1.5 added nested_score = "dictionary" to tokens_lookup(). If this function is used, it a new priority rule apply in dictionary lookup.

    'DM': [Commonwealth of Dominica, Commonwealth Dominican*, Roseau]
    'DO': [Dominican Republic, Dominica, Dominican*, Santo Domingo]

When the new function is used with the above dictionary, only DM is recorded for a texts "Commonwealth of Dominica" because the longer match has the priority. This means that it is safe to otherwise ambiguous words in newsmap dictionaries (e.g. "Congo").
