Hi,

[I CC Stefan because he has installed the fix for #12221 that added the
code that bites me]

I like to use icomplete-mode, but I prefer to have the bindings of RET
and C-j switched.

This sometimes collides with the transient-map installed by
minibuffer-force-complete.

Here is a random recipe for emacs -Q:

Setup:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(icomplete-mode)
(define-key icomplete-minibuffer-map [return]       #'icomplete-force-complete-and-exit)
(define-key icomplete-minibuffer-map [(control ?j)] #'exit-minibuffer)
#+end_src

Now (just a silly example):

M-x epatch

- Answer y to the question whether the patch is in a buffer
- Hit RET to confirm the suggested default

Note that nothing happens, or you get a `ding'.  The second RET works
OTOH.  Without the "Setup" part it works as expected however.

I debugged a bit and found that in the first place, the transient map
installed by minibuffer-force-complete shadows the (my) binding of RET.

Someone with insight into that code (Stefan, probably): am I'm doing
something forbidden, or should we improve that code?


Thanks,

Michael.
