Public bug reported:

It seems has a lot more subcommands than those listed in the manpage or the 
help message.
For example, "download", "policy", "changelog" and "dist-upgrade" all work, and 
they aren't listed.
Maybe apt supports all subcommands from apt-get and apt-cache?

However those subcommands aren't listed in the manpage or the help message.
They also don't have autocomplete, which makes using them a pain, and makes me 
use apt-get and apt-cache instead.

It would be great if all those subcommand were listed in the manpage and
help message, and if there was autocomplete for them!
