I think it's nicer to use existing features/variables, but comparability
is also an issue.

Perhaps completing-read-function could be used if boundp in
org-icompleting-read.

Things like org-completion-use-ido as a separate variable rather than
ido-everywhere is also a bit annoying IMO.

Do you want to submit a patch?
