Actually, command completion will work with sudo. Just edit the file

 ~/.bashrc                 and uncomment the lines immediately below

# enable programmable completion ....

So that they look like:

if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then
    . /etc/bash_completion

Alternatively, enable this system-wide by editing /etc/bash.bashrc . The
lines are identical in that file. ( You don't need or want to do this in
both files - one or the other will do the trick)
