Like I said in another message that I sent just before receiving yours my conclusion came from the fact that hitting 'C-h v' with the cursor on 'org-goto-interface' provided nothing. It was the first time this ever happened to me. I did try to explicitly enter the variable's name by entering 'org-goto<TAB>', which (like 'org-go<TAB>') is not enough: it is completed to 'org--goto'.AFAICT this is a missing feature: we obey `help-enable-autoload` in `describe-function` but we fail to do the same autoloading dance in `describe-variable`.
I think, the difference is interactive vs. non-interactive calls rather than `describe-function' vs. `describe-variable'. What misses this feature is `customize-variable'.
Completion failure for "org-to" happened because result of `register-definition-prefixes' calls is not considered as options. I am aware that it may give false positives, but I still believe they should be added.
Though I believe that org mixed version issue happens due to transitional dependency of some third party package on org or something like (require 'org-protocol) that can not be loaded on demand.
