I don't know.  Just not use C-s and C-r at all.

Or

Introduce two defcustoms of type :key-sequence *shared* across the three
libraries (ido, iswithcb and icomplete).

and set them to C-. and C-,

I don't know what solution would be best here.  Nothing wrong to
discuss, I suppose.

>> I am proposing C-, and C-. as useful defaults.

I think you are not objecting to this.

>> For fear of resentment, I am leaving C-s and C-r bindings intact.

I am in favor of deletion.
