minibuffer-electric-separator & new tramp file format

[Skip M. <sk...@po...>]

(I use XEmacs 21.1.something.)

When the tramp file format was

    /r:manatee.mojam.com:/home/skip/public_html/

hitting "/" in the minibuffer with the above displayed would back up to the
host specifier:

    /r:manatee.mojam.com:/

Hitting another "/" would back all the way up:

    /

This capability is lost with the new tramp filename format.
Minibuffer-electric-separator will have to be reworked to get this (useful,
IMHO) behavior back.
