Hi bug-gnu-emacs,

(Not sure if this should go here or tramp-devel)

There are a few compatibility issues between IDO and Tramp:

1. In IDO, '~' is always interpreted as a local path.  That is, if after enabling IDO mode I type C-x C-f /sshx:user <at> host:~/, then IDO immediately removes the /sshx:user <at> host: prefix.

2. Running M-x shell in a buffer editing a remote file results in a prompt saying "Remote shell path: /sshx:user <at> host:/home/user//bin/bash (not found)".  The coorrect prompt would be "/sshx:user <at> host:/bin/bash".

Cheers,
Clément.
