Yeah, I've been caught a few times like this. When did this start, instead of just tab-completing with all and any available files? Is it customisable? Yes.
See /usr/share/bash-completion/*, and in this case, "/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/tar". Once bash knows that the command is "tar" it applies that configuration, and only looks for tar files.
So much for tab-completion just working...
Yeah, looks like too much magic to me.
It seems to me it would make a whole lot more sense just to default to traditional "all" tab-completion. Then if some power-user wants to tweak the tab-completion to his liking, the feature is there.
