Description
rclone version: 1.67.0
shell: bash and fish
remote: pcloud
Shell completion of remote paths works properly when there are no spaces in the path, but fails to find matches with spaces in the path.
Oddly, I can complete a folder in the root of my remote that has a space in the name, but then cannot complete any files within that folder. If the path has no spaces, I can continue to use shell completion to find files and folders.

Research direction
Reproduce shell completion for remote paths containing spaces against the pcloud remote using both bash and fish. Trace the remote-path completion entry point and compare completion at the remote root with completion inside a folder containing spaces. Done means nested files and folders with spaces produce correct matches in both shells.
