Title:
  wishlist: bash completion could do better with umount with spaces

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

Bug description:
  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.
