Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

The current pdb completion could be improved for the following scenarios:

1. It should support alias if there is any
2. Convenience variables (starting with the$) should be supported as an expression
3. For the "command" completion, if there's no command matches, then the user is probably typing an expression to display and we should just complete as expression.

# The user probably wants $_frame(pdb) $<tab>

Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere
