Dear Mike Frysinger,

Unfortunately, activating it causes some boards to stop working correctly. This is because they use the tftp "command" in their environment, but tftp is has never been a real command, just the prefix for tftpboot. tftpboot used to be the sole completion for the tftp prefix, and this is still true unless one activates tftpsrv.
those configs are broken. the autocomplete support has never been something
This has absolutely nothing to do with autocomplete. It's just using the fact that you can abbreviate all command names as long as they remain unambiguous.
you can rely on if you add new commands. if you want correct behavior all the time, then use the full proper name (i.e. "tftpboot" not "tftp").
True.
Best regards,
