lists them as a menu if you have set 'wildmenu', otherwise completes the
first match. Ctrl-D instead of <Tab> lists them all above the command-line.

they are in global plugins (for netrw, vimball and tar). :Ve would still
give unambiguously Vexplore, but you may want to add a tab next time to
see how Vim completes it (and I recommend ":set wildmenu" in your vimrc
but YMMV).
