Sorry, I tried now with 'emacs -Q' and found a corrected way:

    M-x ido-mode RET           enable ido
    C-x C-f / /                this makes ido load tramp
    C-g                        abort loading

You need to be quick to hit C-g while tramp is still loading.  After
this file opening stops working just as described, at least here.

I managed to reproduce this three times in a row (each time with a
fresh 'emacs -Q', since the previous becomes useless).
