Given all the recent discussions about modern Emacs but also fido-mode came to my mind the following question: was ever considered the inclusion of ivy + counsel in the Emacs core distribution? ivy+counsel it's a quality package that reached already noticeable popularity. Does fuzzy completion with vertical output display, and its counsel-M-X shows also the command key binding (feature I consider for my experience a _game changer_ for softening the learning curve). Finally it's already in ELPA. I'm probably wrong but I get the impression it has already everything fido-mode is trying to get. I'd see its inclusion together with a polished which-key a perfect match. Thanks Andrea
