I see no obvious place to do it.

Further, now that we have an icomplete-specific command, we can try to 
bring it closer to Ido, in command-independent way.

For instance, in ido-find-file RET enters the directory (expands it in 
the input), instead of using it as a match to return.

We could try to choose whether C-j in icomplete-mode returns the current 
completion or just expands it, using the same logic that chooses whether 
to pass `finished' or `exact' to the exit-function in 
minibuffer-completion-help.

Installed.
