And testing it some more, it doesn't really work very well.
$ ssh TAB
gives me
$ ssh quimbies
because I have "Host quimbies" in .ssh/config. But:
$ ssh qTAB
gives me "No match".
It also looks in ~/.ssh/known_hosts, but the default is to hash the host
names, so by default, there's nothing there to complete over.
