I tried this and invoked `find-file-read-args'. I don't see any tab
character inserted or being left, I get the expected behavior, with all
Emacs versions I tried. Of course I can't connect to your hosts.
But really, all the trouble you may provoke with your hack is IMHO much
worse than getting used to the "Find file" wording.
Michael.
