Initial Comment:
Hi, it's an enhancement request. The current completion for browsers accepts all directories, but I think *_files/ are better to filter out.

I've been using the following function for half a year without problem, but I don't know if it's acceptable; I don't understand bash and sed well:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
function _browser_completion(){
    local -a f d

    d=( $( compgen -o dirnames ${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]} \
	| sed -e '/_files$/d') )
    f=( $( compgen -f ${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]} \
	| sed -n -e '/[xXsS]\?[hH][tT][mM][lL]\?$/p' ))
    COMPREPLY=( $(echo ${d[*]} ${f[*]} | sort ) )
}

# I only use firefox.
complete -o filenames -F _browser_completion firefox
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you very much for maintaining bash-completion.

With best regards.
