I don't believe this is a bug, but a feature as they say.
This behavior is controlled by `eshell-cmpl-use-paring'
> If t, pare alternatives that have already been used.
> If nil, you will always see the completion set of possible options, no
> matter which of those options have already been used in previous

After setting the custom to a non-nil.
(setq eshell-cmpl-use-pairing nil)
Will turn on the desired behavior:
$ ls ~/Dropbox/ ~/Dropb<Tab>
$ ls ~/Dropbox/ ~/Dropbox/
