I perceive the `icomplete-mode' feature as a way to select a completion without opening the list of completions in the *Completions* buffer. Since the list of completions can be opened from the minibuffer by typing or `M-v' (`switch-to-completions') and selecting a completion with `previous-completion' and `next-completion' (whereas `C-f' and `C-b' retain their traditional keybindings), e.g. to select `list-buffers' one could type: `M-x list- RET' so it would be reasonable to use something similar in icomplete: `M-x list- C-j' (the advantage is that the user doesn't have to release the Control key) or also `M-x list- C-RET' (interesting that `C-RET' is already translated to `C-j' on ttys by default but not on X, so a separate keybinding is necessary for C-RET on X for `minibuffer-force-complete-and-exit' currently bound to `C-j'.)
