Description
As of now, I can't tab-complete something like \theta to get the unicode symbol as I can in the normal Julia REPL. This makes watching variables more difficult, as I have to go copy-paste the variable name from the source code into the debugging REPL.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the debugger REPL's tab-completion entry point and compare it with the normal Julia REPL's handling of symbols; done means entering \theta in the debugging REPL completes to the corresponding Unicode symbol.
