Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: bash-completion
For example, with a common USB drive that mounts as "/media/My Passport"
...
# mount|grep sdb1
/dev/sdb1 on /media/My Passport type vfat
(rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1999,gid=1999,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,flush)
# umount /media/My
The tab-complete stops at My and doesn't escape the space or put quotes
around.
The recipe for rsync does the right thing...
# rsync /media/My\ Passport/
The place for the improvement would appear to be in this snipped of
/etc/bash_completion:
_umount()
{
local cur IFS=$'\n'
COMPREPLY=()
cur=`_get_cword`
COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W '$( mount | cut -d" " -f 3 )' --
"$cur" ) )
return 0
}
complete -F _umount $dirnames umount
... but I don't know what it would be or I'd write and include a patch.

wishlist: bash completion could do better with umount with spaces
