ido-everywhere is only meant for buffer/file (see its docstring). People
who really want ido everywhere should probably use ido-ubiquitous which
sets completing-read-function to ido-completing-read (in fact, a wrapper
around it because it cannot handle all cases that completing-read should
handle).
Hence, my suggestion would be to use completing-read instead of
ido-completing-read in your code, and configure ido-ubiquitous
(available from marmalade and melpa) for controlling what to use.
Related package : ido-hacks (which also enables ido in more places)
I *guess* it'll then also work automagically with icomplete-mode
(shipped with recent emacs) if that is what the user enable instead of
ido-ubiquitous.
