Somehow it's the other way round for me. With the the PostgreSQL command line tools, notably psql, I have tab completion when I invoke them and inside the tool itself, where I also get extensive help. I don't seem to get tab completion with the mysql command. From my experience, your accusation of the PostgreSQL tools being "awkward, clumsy and unhelpful" appears to be unsubstantiated.
