Description

In some situations, when you are modeling counts or GLM it is important to set an offset to the model. It would be interesting if step_lencode_glm allowed the user to specify the type of model needed (count, classification, etc.). In addition to allowing some offset to the model for the adjustment and estimation of the union of the different levels of the variable of interest.

Thanks

Research direction

Start by locating the step_lencode_glm entry point and reading how it currently selects and fits GLM models. Clarify the supported model types, offset behavior, and how offsets affect adjustment and estimation before identifying the relevant tests. Done means the requested model selection and offset semantics are specified and covered by tests.
