First, there's already the variable org-completion-use-ido which also
affects org-switchb. Second, I don't know if there's a point in
/removing/ the support for org-completion-use-iswitchb. E.g. Debian still
has an old version of Emacs.
What you could do is make ido the default backend, especially if
icomplete-mode is obsolete. E.g. in org-switchb you would edit this
statement to default to ido, preferably only if icomplete is obsolete:
(unless (or org-completion-use-ido org-completion-use-iswitchb)
(setq org-completion-use-iswitchb t))
You could also update the docstring of `org-completion-use-iswitchb'.
See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html for the details.
Cheers,
Rasmus
