What is inconvenient in anything commands?

It seem you are speaking of file completion of anything-config, as it is
part of anything, it must have `anything-' prefix no?, or may be i don't
understand what you mean.

The goal of anything completion (for files) is to stay in the anything
loop without going out, a regular use of minibuffer will complete on one
search and then exit.
Actually with anything-find-files you can navigate in all you system
file with completion without quitting anything and without opening any dired
buffers.
