That makes sense opening the bookmark file for a directory, but for
opening an individual file it seems odd.

The impression I got was that the list of bookmarks is not filtered by
the chosen file because it is easier to just show everything, rather
than being done that way on purpose.

Yeah, if you want to see the bookmarks for all files in a directory,
you can open the directory's bookmark file. That feature doesn't
change here.

I think it is confusing to open the file aaa.mp3, and then see
bookmarks for bbb.mp3, etc. That's the only behaviour the patch
changes.

My thinking was that adding a new menu entries affects everyone using
the menu. Changing the way the "ask" bookmark menu works only affects
you if you use this feature.
