Does any of you know why this won't work:
(defalias 'suc 'search-unencodable-character)?
Other interactive functions that require an argument seem to work
alright with defalias. Does what I want have to be put in a lambda?

Oop! Never mind. I thought the function name was longer than it was
(defalias 'suc 'search-unencodable-char)works fine.

FWIW, in Emacs-24, if you add the `initials' completion to
completion-styles, and if you bind minibuffer-force-complete to a key
(e.g. M-TAB) or if you set completion-cycle-threshold to a value larger
than 2, then you can do:
M-x suc M-TAB M-TAB RET
And the subsequent times (assuming you haven't used M-x
scroll-up-command in between), a since M-TAB should be sufficient.
You could argue that search-unencodable-character should actually come
before scroll-up-command by default (since scroll-up-command has
a key-binding), but M-x's completion is not that clever (yet?).
