Thank you for reporting this. The problem has already been fixed in
Feisty because it has a newer patch (7.0.122), which fixes the problem,
as you mentioned.
It is unlikely that this will be fixed in Edgy Backports unless there is
some other reason for a newer version of Vim to be backported.

No. This bug only manifests when completing shell commands. Regular
file completion works fine, if you have the 'compatible' option
disabled. Tab completion after :! only completes binaries found in
$PATH, and upstream patch 7.0.081 fixes it to complete both binaries
from $PATH and files on the
confirmed here; same for any shell-like filename tab-completion (:r
~/path etc.)
