Can you please explain more exactly what problems you see with my
patch? It autocompletes in the shell buffer with "\" if the shell used

Why do you think it has to be customizable?
After taking a pause I see that you are right. There are problems with
my patch. I was somehow assuming that the buffer local value of
shell-file-name could not be propagated further. I just thought about
the command you send to the shell, but you can of course do other things.
However an easy way to fix this would be to have a new variable,
buffer-shell-file-name, that is always buffer local and with a global
value that is always nil. Setting this whenever starting a shell process
and checking for this in w32-shell-dos-semantics would be enough.
The reason I prefer this way is that there might more problems with
this. Because of this I believe that it would be a buffer local variable
holding the value that shell-file-name had when the buffer was setup.
