FWIW, I also don't want to pollute the minibuffer history, obviously.
That would make harder to find the entries you care about.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, but what I had in mind was adding to
the history every file visited _under direct user request_ (with
either `C-x C-f', drag-n-drop, click on dired buffer, jump to
bookmark, menu item, command line argument, etc).
