I agree with the expected (ivy like) experience, but I would prefer not
to add too much complexity to icomplete. Ivy started as a simplified
version of icomplete (< 800 lines) and it grow up to thousands of
lines (>7000).

So for the moment I think that vertical layout could be enough right? If
the user wants ivy there is ivy (btw: maybe ivy should be in elpa but
that's another topic).
