does not auto-complete. The bash-completion (141K) package solves this, which I tried on my F8 machine. Maybe worth an inclusion since the completion works as well for other cases like:
yum in[tab]
(even so in the case of 'yum install b[tab]' it takes a while to list the packages).
I love bash-completion and I use it everywhere, but I'd not support adding it to the base OS for the same reason we do not install vim-enhanced, links, lftp and all the other nice console tools.
The default console environment should be just good enough to perform system recovery, and special administrative tasks which have no UI yet.
Our OS images have grown over 300MB! I think we could get them back to 200MB or so just by dropping useless dependencies and splitting a few packages.
