May I suggest this compromise... _Require_ the optional colon.
Tramp filenames
/method:user@host:/path/to/file
/:user@host:/path/to/file (which uses default method)
In GNU Emacs, "/:" at the beginning of a file name means to quote this
name. This would disable Tramp handlers for this file name.
But don't panic, the idea is not to remove the syntax you like. We are
just speaking about a common default for the syntax. Today, it is
'ftp for GNU Emacs and 'sep for XEmacs. If you apply
(setq tramp-syntax 'sep)
you won't see the changed default.
