The icomplete-vertical-mode does not list buffer-save-without-query as an option to add-file-local-variable after the input prefix buffer- .
Steps to reproduce
- emacs -Q
- switch to buffer bbb, C-x b bbb RET
- enable completion mode, M-x icomplete-vertical-mode
- add file local variable, M-x add-file-local-variable abbreviated by
= M-x add-fi C-j
= buffer- [does not list completion buffer-save-without-query]
= alternatives listed are
- buffer-read-only
- buffer-offer-save
Expected behavior
- completion mode lists buffer-save-without-query
= example of desired completion listing
- buffer-read-only
- buffer-offer-save
- buffer-save-without-query
Unexpected behavior
- completion mode lists two alternatives without desired option
= observed completion listing
- buffer-read-only
- buffer-offer-save

add-file-local-variable completes only on variables that are safe as
local variables, and buffer-save-without-query is not. So you need to
type its name completely.
This is not a bug.

I see why. Maybe unsafe options can allow an override to appear in
grey faded font. There could be an explainer dialogue for what is unsafe.
I use buffer-save-without-query on scratch files.

I tend to agree with Eli here, and I don't think we want to add unsafe
options there, as it will be too confusing. So I'm closing this bug.
