zsh can do this for (for example) cvs.  Type "cvs <tab><tab><tab>" and 
you get "cvs annotate".

Type "cvs commit foo/bar/<tab>" and zsh will start cycling through the 
files which need committing in ./foo/bar/.  Yes, the shell knows about
and pokes around inside cvs files.

I just brought this up because I know how much you'd love the whole
concept ;)
