The former only -- why wouldn't you "simply" do ./~<TAB> do avoid
expansion altogether?  (Ie on case-by-case basis?)  (Having said
that, it seems bash just does not do it the way i would expect, my
mailer does, but does not iterate over a la getpwent() at all
(only expands valid ~USER, not expanding ~U to USER first, you
know).
