This was specified even before I've entered the Tramp camp, back in 2002.
And I'm very conservative in changing the interface.

Anyway, I've fixed in Tramp the implementation for `file-name-as-directory',
`file-name-directory' and `file-name-nondirectory' in completion mode.
This solves this bug, I'm closing it.

Thanks for pointing me into the right direction with `file-name-directory'!
