Hi all,
I was just trying to customize the completion back end for refiling (ido isn't
great for that, even with the ido-vertical upgrade). And it's not at all easy,
since ido seems to be hard-wired into org-mode's completion. Could we just
change to use `completing-read-function' instead of `org-icompleting-read'?
regards,
Oleh

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?

Alright, I've made so that if `completing-read-function' is
`completing-read-default', nothing changes. But when it's set, it
used. So now, e.g. `helm-mode' or `ivy-mode' will automatically work.

The change is no good IMO. For the fix to work one needs to set
org-completion-use-ido. If this is non-nil it would be weird if ido is
not used.
I don't know how to use helm of ivy. But I think the attached patch is
better. Would that work with helm and ivy?

I could live with it, but basically `org-completion-use-ido` says "I
don't care if you've temporarily disabled `ido-mode' or not, I'll use
ido anyway". This isn't a good approach, especially considering that
`ido-mode' is already a convenient minor mode.
Maybe `org-completion-use-ido' should be completely removed, and ido completion
should be used automatically when `ido-mode' is on.

Yes, both work fine.

Oops, just noticed that `ido-mode' is actually in the condition.
All is fine then.
Except that iswitchb is obsolete. Should we remove it?

Ideally it should just depend on the whatever default functions set.
E.g. for me read-file-name-function => ido-read-file-name on my system.
Perhaps org-completion-use-ido can be made obsolete and just read
ido-everywhere.

The target release of Org 8.3 is something like Emacs23 (or maybe 24.3?).
In either case we can't obsolete it until 8.4 since iswitchb is obsolete
from 24.4...

Just my 2 cents: what about us Icicles users? (Apparently, all two of
us, which saddens me...)

Icicles works fine. And any new future package that adheres to the
interface should work too.

I'm sure you will tell us :)
IMO Org should use whatever Emacs is already using by default. Variables
for default chooser programs exist. If Icicles does not work using the
standard variables perhaps you should get in touch with Drew. If Org does
not respect some default variable, IMO it's a bug.
Cheers,
Rasmus

I don't have time to do experiments now, but AFAIK, Icicles blends with
the default interface, so - as Oleh pointed out - it should work fine.
