Reason for closing:  Deferred
Additional comments about closing:  Can't be implemented yet because the upstream completions are still in development and not included in the stable release sources. We can do this as soon as they are actually make it into a release.

The completions are in the *master* branch, but they were not included in the last stable release[1] which is built from a long running stable branch and it is not clear that the ones in master would completely match the last release. I think we need to wait to include these for a release that actually includes them.

I'm going to mark this issue as dealt with because there isn't anything to do now, but we will 100% be up for packaging the completions as soon as they are included in a stable release. If for some reason we package the next version and forget about this please do comment again or raise a new issue.
