Yes, I know. But it only autocompletes file names, not program flags
and arguments etc., unless you write special bash scripts for every
single program examining what its arguments are. The point of what I
wrote is that there is now a good idea about how programs can convey
their arguments to the shell, thus allowing a general fix to the
issue.
