Tab completion doesn't work inside prompts

[Nicholas Skaggs]

For example, when adding a credential, adding command line arguments, backup and restore, etc.

Specifically, tab completing filenames as an example.

To be fair, one is being done inside a SHELL and the other would have to be
changing our prompts from being "Scanf()" to something that would probe for
every character typed, and work in a much more interactive fashion.

Though I agree it would be nice.
