Both solutions sound good, but considering the prefix argument discussed below,
probably the second one seems like the nicest.

This would be great. Dynamic switching is not a must-have for me, I was just
offering an example of a possible behaviour. What's important is being able to
get to the ignored file(s) through project-find-file.
