That would solve this problem. `tramp-completion-file-name-handler´ is
sufficiently stable (last change on 2002-10-11). Shall I apply this patch?

There's still the remaining issue whether it is _desired_ to load tramp
on ordinary file name completion. Here I could imagine a customization
for that feature. Default ON or OFF depends on convenience for the
_majority_ of users. I would vote for ON, but maybe I'm biased.

Best regards, Michael.
