Oh, right, sorry, duh!  Indeed, it's perfectly safe then to bind it to
nil there.

Hmm... then I wonder why this binding would be needed at all: why wouldn't
the variable already be nil?

[...time passes...]

Oh, I see: there is an incorrect binding in ido-read-internal which
means that all commands within IDO are treated as non-essential.

The way I see it, The Right Way would be to do the binding in
ido-exhibit, since that's the code run from post-command-hook, i.e. the
code that's not explicitly requested by the user.
