Indeed, the prompting should normally take place in the `interactive'
spec, but the above is sadly pretty common.

Not really, no. And advising `foo' only won't help: you also need to
advise org-icompleting-read.

Nope. That worked with `flet', but `cl-flet' is actually providing
Common-Lisp's `flet' which defines a lexically-scoped function.
Better use an advice here.
