Public bug reported:
When the path starts with a tilde (~) tab completion doesn't propose
files. It works fine with bash 4.2 and is a regression in 4.3.
TEST CASE:
1. Open a terminal and type:
$ cat ~/.b<TAB><TAB>
ACTUAL RESULT:
Only directories are proposed. Completion works fine with an absolute or
relative path instead of '~'
EXPECTED RESULT:
Directories and files are proposed
