GNU Coding Standards frown on using "illegal" for > something that is merely incorrect or invalid coding practices. Good to know. [[However I'd say that the word "illegal" is used precisely right here.

In this case a string is mutated by completing-read, but ownership of the string in question is not passed to completing-read.]]
