Aka   ((string-match-p ...)) as it is used as a predicate, and not to
extract match data.

Why doesn't this support forward slashes on DOS/Windows?  It should.

If I don't care about the match data one way or the other (as here, I
assume) why is string-match-p preferable? Is it faster or something?

If we consider (as we do) that save-match-data is expensive enough
that we only do when necessary, I'd assume not registering the match
data is faster than registering it, yes.

But anyway, the main reason is legibility. If you encounter
string-match-p or looking-at-p you can be confident that they are
being used as predicates and the following code does not depend on the
match data. That is a net gain IMO.

I agree but since ido.el is written without this in mind I will leave it
as is to be consistent with adjacent code.
