I think what we really want to see is conformity with other *ix - type
systems. Each and every Unix - type box  out there (Irix, HP-UX, SCO
etc) wall tab-complete will exhinit the following behaviour:

Example:

export JBOSS_HOME=/usr/local/jboss/jboss-4.5.2GA
cd $JBOSS<tab> ...completes to 'cd /usr/local/jboss/jboss-4.5.2GA'.  However, 
on Ubuntu, it will tab-complete to 'cd \$JBOSS_HOME'. That is NOT standard 
behaviour.
