I think emacs sends the whole input line to the shell when you press
return.  So, you are not interactively talking to the shell, but
instead isolated from it by emacs.

I use the elisp code called filec-shell.  Here's a name I managed to
find from the elisp file.

;; File-completion-in-shell-mode by Shinichirou Sugou 90/6/8
;;        shin%sgtp.apple.juice.or.jp@uunet.uu.net

It works great with me, and I bound the keys it provides to TAB and
C-c ? instead of the META keys it used (if I remember correctly).
Here's a caption of my emacs definitions:

(load "filec-shell" nil t)
(setq shell-mode-hook
      '(lambda ()
          (define-key shell-mode-map "\C-i" 'my-shell-complete)
          (define-key shell-mode-map "\C-c\?" 'my-shell-completion-help)))

If you can't get the elisp file from any real elisp archive, drop me a
line.
