What is the current status, will it be included in the code > base? No, Icicles won't be added to Emacs. Perhaps someday some of its features will inspire similar features for Emacs. Perhaps not. Actually, a few of the minor features have been added, such as allowing text properties for completions. None of the major features have been adopted or adapted.
