-----------------------------------------------
Sebastien, While ipython is its own binary and does auto-complete as a quick
library reference for a developer. It is not very handy to use for someone just
playing with CloudStack. Think of the ec2 API tools that are provided to users
to control their instances. This is something that CLoudStack lacks right now.

> The marvin libraries contain the capability to convert marvin into an
> interactive shell for CloudStack. Every cloud provider has an auto-completing
> shell and cloudstack lacks options for this now. This should involve
> refactoring all the marvin libraries to allow for auto-completion of APIs.
> Furthermore the ability to autocomplete the entities like templates, images,
> virtualmachines need to exist as a part of such a shell to make it useful at
> cloudscale
