Title:
bash completion
(corrected)
Agreed, this is an annoying bug and has been around far too long (a decade?).
ls $HOME/.ss should give: ls $HOME/.ssh/
"shopt -s direxpand" expands $HOME which is not wanted.
"shopt -u complete_fullquote" should give me what I want but has no effect.

Title:

I strongly agree with thava (in comment #51).
It's now 2017 and this issue is still unresolved and continues to
require a sub-optimal workaround and no proper fix returning the
original behaviour and allowing the variable name to remain in the
command-line, post tab-completion.
