User backward-compatibility is nice but not important enough to imply
"cannot do". I think in this case, IDO has lost enough popularity by
now that more users will be happy rather than annoyed by the change.

Users can enable IDO already, and if really some users like IDO for this
command but not elsewhere (which seems highly unlikely to me), we can
add a small ELisp snippet in NEWS using `advice-add`, for them to copy
to their init file.
