I forcibly suppress the message in a messier way than I'd prefer. I am saving recentf files on each new visited file or killed buffer because, well, why wouldn't I? Why would I risk losing even a single recentf entry if the impact of IO on an nvme is negligible, so I am seeing this message all the time. I have updated the patch, calling the variable `recentf-inhibit-messages', because this is probably a better name, and I have also made it a boolean. I don't think that "saveplace" and "recentf" should share a variable, because they are different packages, and people might be using them in a different way.
