Got it. Thx. Yes, same thing with Icomplete+: key <left> is echoed.
Personally, this (rare, I would guess) minor nuisance is outweighed
by the positive help provided by showing keys for sole-match commands.
As a different user, you might feel differently about the relative
value.
The important thing is that if you restore this fine feature then
you simply give individual _users_ the choice: there was already a
user option for whether to show key bindings,
`icomplete-show-key-bindings'. Restoring that option is of course
part of fixing the regression.
