I suspect this change: 2008-04-29 Stefan Monnier [...] * dired.el (dired-read-dir-and-switches): Replace last change with a new approach that mixes read-file-name and read-directory-name. (This change eliminates the call to read-directory-name (unless next-read-file-uses-dialog-p is non-nil), which eliminates the call to read-file-name, which checks read-file-name-completion-ignore-case.) Is this result intended? If so, please mention it in NEWS, since it is incompatible with earlier behavior. (But I would prefer to have the earlier behavior restored.) Steve Berman
