I will, when I'm convinced the current situation isn't acceptable. The current situation (you must type a char in order to see the host name) is described in the Tramp manual, and I haven't heard complaints about since ever.
That might be what the manual says, but it's not what the current situation actually is. Type C-x C-f /scp TAB and you'll see scp: scpx:. Type C-x C-f /scp: TAB and you'll see scp:foo: scp:bar:. This is coherent, ':' acts like a directory separator, like the '://' in URLs.
But for those who use the substring and flex completion styles, typing C-x C-f /scp TAB displays pscp: scp: scpx:. Typing C-x C-f /scp: TAB still displays scp: scpx:. This isn't at all coherent.
