We could use a hack that affects choose-completion when inserting into
a comint-mode or shell-mode buffer, but that's hackish and is likely to
introduce new problems.  In the mean time I did get "the right way" to
work (so quoting interacts well with completion-styles) and based on
this experience (which was not traumatic but requires a few changes
which shouldn't make it into 24.1 so late in the game) I decided that
for 24.1 we'll just revert to the 23 behavior of quoting the output of
all-completions for those shell completion tables.

I still cannot reproduce it from "emacs -Q" following your above recipe.
