Would certainly be nice. Not entirely sure how you do that though. Certainly
more a shell feature than a Boar feature, but possibly it needs some help from
Boar. I'll limit this issue to support for Bash for now (as that is what I use
myself).

Most bash/cli tools that implement tab completion have a xyz_completion.sh
script that can be copied into the /etc/bash_completion,
/etc/bash_completion.d/*, or similar folders and get loaded for people that
have programmable completion enhancements sourced in their bashrc file. Those
same folders are also good places to look for examples of tab completion
scripts for other tools.
The following are some good articles on implementing programmable tab
completion for bash:

(obviously turns up many more)
