But the virtual buffers are only visible on `C-x C-f', not on `C-x b',
right?

At least, that's what it looks like when I do:

0. emacs -Q
1. M-x ido-mode
2. (setq ido-virtual-buffers t)
3. C-x C-f existing-file-foo RET
4. C-x k RET
5. C-x k      => existing-file-foo is not shown

But I may very well be overlooking something...
