Ah, ok. It's that the R console has no idea that the text is really being 
pasted. It sees the tab as a simple key-press. For tab-key it will try to 
provide filename completion (since it assumes the text is entered 
interactively). The rkward console is simply a little smarter about this.

Writing the same to a file and source()ing it should work fine. Pasting into a 
plain R console is not really a typical use-case, so I guess we can safely 
ignore this for now.
