Yeah, I think you're right, and the original patch was the correct
solution here: When the user explicitly (and interactively) kills a
buffer, then they expect that buffer to go away.  (There isn't any other
reasonable interpretation for that interactive action.)

It's perhaps slightly inconsistent, but I think it's more DWIM.

So I'm applying your patch to Emacs 28, and we'll see if any users of
this ido setting complains (in which case we should be prepared to
revert it).
