further update: comments for __ltrim_colon_completions() in /usr/share
/bash-completion/bash_completion say you can
# Remove colon (:) from list of word completion separators
# COMP_WORDBREAKS=${COMP_WORDBREAKS//:}
in your .bashrc if you care more about completing names with : in them
than about completing paths in :-separated lists, I guess.
