[Bash-completion-devel] Bug#669618: bash-completion should autocomplete bash alias as well

[afuentes]

Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.99-3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

i think is wanted and feasible to make bash-completion to autocomplete
something like

alias aptinstall='apt-get install'

just in the same way it would autocomplete in bash shell after typing those
words

either buildin alias autocompletion (most awesome) or some stanza or means to
easier to the task of autocomplete alias (less awesome but still useful).

Thanks!
