I like it as an idea, but probably wouldn't use the UI itself much. At 
this point it's up to you which of the approaches to put forward, though.

I was also thinking that the "read project" prompt itself could serve 
like such a listing which could be edited by the user on-the-fly. But 
that would require some extension of the completing-read facility.

The closest analogy is how icomplete-fido-kill (C-k) can delete a file 
if it's called during file name completion.
