Alright, how about this:

(setq icomplete-in-buffer t)
(fido-mode 1)
M-x eshell
touch foobarbaz
C-x C-f fbb => matches the file
C-g
type "ls fbb"

TAB => No matches
C-g
(setq completion-styles '(flex))
TAB => matches the file & expands

but with fido-mode you shouldn't need to set completion-styles like this.

(In Eshell TAB is completion-at-point and C-M-i is something else.)
