I am a little puzzled. Have you changed your mind and now you think
that *not* completing is the right thing to do?

Ah, I forgot to mention that you can always use Alt+/ to complete with
every file in the path, which will suggest *any* file, not just those
ending in '.tar*'. Anyhow, I thought that that might help you a little
before we can get this fixed (if we ever make it into upstream
bash-completion).

Cheers,
Gabriel
