Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating how x-cli handles username input and whether it has existing completion or alias support; clarify whether the goal is completion for followed users, user-defined aliases, or both before defining done.

Description

feature

Would it be possible with some kind of support for tab completion for usernames? I talk to a few regular people and I really don't like typing their username manually, due to the risk of misspelling and the issue with remembering their username.

Perhaps it would be possible to somehow tab complete users you're following? Or create some kind of aliases for them via t?
