It's possible to hide *Completions* when icomplete-mode is enabled,
but I'm not sure if everyone will like this.  For example,
I'm using both icomplete-mode and the *Completions* buffer
at the same time in the minibuffer.  And in a regular buffer
we should keep for users the ability to pop up *Completions*
in addition to in-buffer completions.

Maybe the best solution would be to use something like
in completion-preview-mode where you can use in-buffer
completions and still be able to type M-C-i to pop up
the *Completions* buffer.
