I think `minibuffer-default-add-completions' as the value of
`minibuffer-default-add-function' is useful for a list of buffers
for buffer-reading commands because there are ordered by recency.

For most other commands, completions are unordered, so perhaps we should
set `minibuffer-default-add-function' to `minibuffer-default-add-completions'
only for buffer-reading commands.
