Indeed.  Which is why the Info format now looks like this:

     ‘M-<TAB>’ will select the first completion in the list, like ‘C-j’
  but without exiting the minibuffer, so you can edit it further.  This is
  typically used when entering a file name, where ‘M-<TAB>’ can be used a
  few times to descend in the hierarchy of directories.

IOW, little green men have already fixed this, see bug #17362.
