Re: Assignment of misc packages for emacs

    One additional trick is that M-x match prompts you for the directory
    using ido-read-directory, meaning that it is very easy to navigate to
    a completely different base directory.

I don't mind having ido as a feature available in Emacs, for whoever
wants to use it or enable it, but each specific command that reads a
directory name must be consistent with the rest of Emacs.  If you
install M-x match (or search-file-tree), please make it use the
standard file-name reading interface.
