I mentioned that (1) different users have different
preferences about this, and (2) it's possible to
have different preferences for different commands
(which is likely why you cited `C-x C-f').
Icicles provides user options for this, and it
lets commands provide appropriate default behavior.
E.g., a command that essentially uses *Completions*
as a menu can show that initially (and nevertheless
also be able to change that "menu" based on user
minibuffer input (pattern filtering).
There is no reasonable one-size-fits-all. There
can be a reasonable default behavior. There need
to be user knobs to control the behavior according
to preference - and preference not only in general
but even wrt particular commands and particular
contexts.
