Hello,

Regarding this change:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=bash-completion/bash-completion.git;a=commitdiff;h=14fc9f2

I have been trying to get accustomed to this behavior for almost half a
year now, but after far too many WTF moments I can now say that I
definitely dislike it - it just makes things too inconsistent.

Therefore, I am going to make it (= the behavior introduced by the patch
above) optional in git.  I also have a strong opinion that it should be
off by default.  Other opinions?
