Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Some time ago I created this issue in PSReadline about using tab-completion using a forward slash in PowerShell running on Windows (to better simulate Unix ). For instance, today the ls C:/Users followed by the tab is automatically converted to C:\Users\. I would expect C:/Users/.

PSReadline team said it couldn't be done because CompleteInput is coded to use the system separator.

Therefore, my feature request is that the CompleteInput return respects the same dir separator used in the input param.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
