Yes, that's what I meant here, too.

But that is not what the code does, I believe.  It adds the name to the history
even when bookmark-rename is invoked non-interactively.

Thanks.  But again, this really is not specific to bookmark commands.  A more
general solution should be found, IMO.

For bookmark.el, I would be happy if we did not try to add menu-invoked commands
to the histry, and we just waited for a general solution.

But I would also be happy if you implement a bookmark.el solution that does what
we mentioned above: add to the history only when invoked by the user,
interactively (menu or keys).
