Only Prev and Next by default consider the CirculateSkip style option.
Others by default do not do this. If you are not sure what are the
defaults, you may always specify the corresponding condition,
CirculateHit or !CirculateHit, but often it just works as expected.

Condition CirculateHit (the default for All) means do not consider the
CirculateSkip style option. Respectively, "!CirculateHit" means consider.
The name of the condition CirculateHit is highly unfortunate. It should
be something like IgnoreCirculateSkipStyleOption.

I hope the above explanation helps to distinguish between CirculateHit
condition (bad name) and CirculateHit style option.
