This is indeed a better idea!  I'm not very familiar with `cl-*' code,
but the way you suggest makes `icomplete-fido-kill' very flexible.  As I
understand it, even if `consult' doesn't define its methods, we can
still do it ourselves as end users, without needing to advise or
override the original function.

Thanks!
