 When finding a file via a bookmark, that file is not part of
 file-name-history
Date: Mon, 27 Jan 2014 16:26:59 +0100

I suggest we build a list of Emacs Elisp commands that are candidates
for adding a file name to file-name-history:

- bookmark-jump
- bookmark-jump-other-window
- dired-find-file
- dired-find-file-other-window

come to my mind.  Thanks for adding others.

Then a new option find-file-history can contain 'bookmark 'dired
and the likes to control whether the related features should add
the file name to `file-name-history'.
