I just sent in a little proposed fixup patch, but I also had a few
findings from testing it briefly. It works well enough, though there
are a few oddities. I'm not sure that they're worth fixing if they're
difficult, but I'll mention them here anyway for discussion. 

====

If you've already specified a domain, tab completion tries to suggest
additional domains to add to the command:

virt-viewer --id 1 --reconnect <tab><tab>
1   13  2

====

X display completion doesn't seem to work for me:

$ virt-viewer --display=<tab>

(appends a colon to the command):
$ virt-viewer --display=:<tab>

(appends another colon):
$ virt-viewer --display=::

Further <tab> presses do nothing.

====

Additionally, is it useful to specify --all to the `virsh list`
command? How often is a user going to want to connect to a non-running
domain?

In general it looks good though.
