I think it's good since bash provides this option in HISTCONTROL
and it is useful:
HISTCONTROL
A colon-separated list of values controlling how commands are saved
on the history list.
If the list of values includes ignorespace, lines which begin with
a space character are not saved in the history list.
A value of ignoredups causes lines matching the previous history
entry to not be saved.
A value of ignoreboth is shorthand for ignorespace and ignoredups.
A value of erasedups causes all previous lines matching the current
line to be removed from the history list before that line is saved.
We already have `history-delete-duplicates' that corresponds to the bash
option `ignoredups'. So a new option that corresponds to `ignorespace'
would be good too.
