The Tramp manual explains it already, but people tend to ignore that
manual. A good place to explain this special behaviour for remote file
names would be at (info "(emacs) Minibuffer File") .

In the section about interactive shells, this explanation could be
mirrored, or a link to the previous explanation could be added, see
(info "(emacs) Interactive Shell") .

Best regards, Michael.
