Instead of the timid-enable / timid-disable, why don't
you make this into a proper minor mode, 
e.g. named timid-completion-mode (or just timid-mode).

Also, instead of the various "member" checks, it is
better (IMO) to put a 'timid-completion property on
the relevant commands, and then do something like

(if (eq (get this-command 'timid-completion) 'affected)
    ...

instead of 

(if (member this-command timid-affected-commands)
    ...


That makes it easier for unrelated packages to
mark commands as "timid-affected" without actually
loading timid.el.

See delsel.el for a good example.
