The only difference is that Ange-FTP is loaded only for `file-name-completion´, whereas Tramp is loaded in more cases. Why is Tramp loaded in more cases? Can you get rid of them, and arrange to load it only for file name completion? Also, maybe it is possible to prevent loading these packages in the specific case of just `/'. Completion is not very useful in that case, and that is the most likely case for someone to type and not really want it.
