This could get complicated. Some time ago I looked at the bash
completion code for svn and all thoughts of doing something similar for
bazaar were vanishing. I lack the zen of bashism, I guess.

I just wrote a small function that does the job for me. Anyway, it might
help other bash users. (Source the attachment in your ".bash_profile".)
