My main problem is not completing-read-multiple, but the fact that we
have to read-directory-name and then also completing-read-multiple.
Ideally, it should be a single interactive prompt, not two prompts one
by one.

In practice, I suspect that we will need to implement a custom
version of `read-file-name-default' that will read multiple files rather
than one.
