This behavior is intensional. Many current users expect a TAB to mean TAB especially when entering compound commands from the terminal. I suspect that2 is is less of an inconvenience for a user to type one character before doing a completion, then it is for a user to hit ^V before each tabr especially with multiple tabs.
