As I understand the manual, the org specific way is to use per file
variable, but instead of using Emacs _*_ for file variables, org uses #+
and they do their own parsing seems like. I might missunderstand, but
the syntax to use is: 

#+TODO: keyword1 keyword2 ... keywordN

I was looking around in org.el a bit now, and I see there are three vars
associated with per-file todo keywords: org-todo-keywords-1
org-todo-kwd-alist and org-todo-key-alist which seem to be set in
org-set-regexps-and-options function. I'll see if I can refactore
something out from there for my purpose.
