Title:
  Tab completion with tar -xf doesn't support spaces in file name

Status in “bash-completion” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This works:

  $ touch test\ file
  $ tar -cf te<tab>
  $ tar -cf test\ file

  But this does not:

  $ touch test\ file
  $ tar -xf te<tab>
  $ tar -xf test file

  (No backslash.)

  Even:

  $ touch test\ file
  $ tar -xf test\ file<tab>
  $ tar -xf test file
