1. The doc string of `icomplete-with-completion-tables' should say what
a value of `t' means.  It has a special meaning.
 
2. The doc string of `icomplete-simple-completing-p' should be corrected
wrt its "Conditions" description.  What's missing is the logic that uses
`icomplete-with-completion-tables'.
 
3. The value of `icomplete-with-completion-tables' is not changed in
`icomplete.el'.  It is changed only in `window.el'.  Presumably this var
exists for libraries (presumably including 3rd-party code) to bind or
set.  All the more reason for it to be better documented.

Please document the `t' value.

(Should it perhaps even be the default value?)

I have a feeling that much of icomplete.el can be obsoleted after
absorbing it's existing functionality in to minibuffer.el.

In the re-written form, icomplete will simply be a one-line pre and post
command hooks and may be some user-variables.

See this bug/thread:
    http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=11131#31

The associated bzr revision is:
    http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/emacs/trunk/revision/110680

It is better that value be changed to t and/or the associated variable
made user customizable.
