Description

- The underlying command framework supports dynamic tab completion
- Though has [this bug](https://github.com/urfave/cli/issues/272) which we should see solved first, before implementing
- `app.EnableBashCompletion = true` in `main.go`
- Need to figure out how this integrates with distribution channels
- Will it automatically add the bash completion during install? How do disable it?
- How do we make manual install easy?

First step would be tab completion of commands.

Second step, once we've begun caching locally, would be tab completing object names.

Research direction

Start with main.go and the underlying command framework, including the linked completion bug that should be resolved first. Investigate how completion integrates with distribution channels, how it can be disabled, and how manual installation should work; done means command tab completion is supported and its installation behavior is documented.
