With dozens of passwords in variously nested directories, it can be

my password folder structure and memorizing this...
I use this path layout for my passwords:
SITE[/SERVICE]/USERNAME
So:
example.com/ftp/tomryder
Because I so often have only one file in a directory ancestry like this,
it makes sense to me to complete the whole path in one hit if possible.
I wrote my own Bash completion to do this:
<https://sanctum.geek.nz/cgit/dotfiles.git/tree/bash/bash_completion.d/pass.bash?h=v10.26.0>
(Attached, too.)
This means I can type:
$ pass ex<Tab>
And as long as there's only the one password in the structure, it
completes to the full path:
$ pass example.com/ftp/tomryder
This only completes the password names---not e.g. the subcommands---but
that's all I wanted to complete anyway.

Maybe we can bring back the light.
