Comment(by duncan):

 Great thanks.

 If you're a bash coder, would you consider helping us with a patch to
 simplify the completion script by remove the `cabal list` feature?
 Currently it tries to complete package names by calling `cabal list`. This
 does not work well and makes the script rather more complicated than it
 really needs to be.
