------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a slightly different idea: changing autocompletion.
Right now if a user types first letters and presses tab then it will 
autocompleted to the whole command except semicolon. For instance {{EX}} to 
{{EXIT}}, {{Q}} to {{QUIT}} and so on. 
In this case it is required to explicitly type semicolon before submitting a 
command. 
The idea is to make autocompletion with semicolon like {{EX}} to {{EXIT;}}, 
{{Q}} to {{QUIT;}}, {{HE}} to {{HELP;}} only for these commands since there are 
not requiring any args .
In this case SQL standard and behavior are satisfied

> The special commands {{HELP}}, {{EXIT}}, and {{QUIT}} are not really part of 
> the SQL syntax but rather tool-specific commands. Having the requirement to 
> have the semicolon follow-up on these commands might not be necessary.
