It doesn't suffice.
Citation needed.
My context is "the whole of Emacs". That's what Ido Ubiquitous
is supposed to be affecting and improving.
Really? Even when `ido-ubiquitous-mode' is off?
Obviously not. Also not when it's not installed, in case you were wondering.
Again: What prevents you from making `completing-read' behave
that way (or any other way) within your context? Why is it
insufficient for you to do that in your value of
`completing-read-function' or by advising `completing-read'
for the duration?
No answer.
You fail at reading.
I change the behavior of `completing-read' considerably
more than what you've described, but I do it only inside
`icicle-mode'. When the mode is off, the vanilla behavior
returns to `completing-read'. Not a big deal. Normal.
And yet, you haven't contributed anything helpful to this discussion so far.
