[Yum-devel] About yum bash completion

Hello,

As discussed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=517637, I'm 
willing to maintain bash completion for yum in yum's git.  See also that bug 
for some reasons why I think it's better to include the completion in yum 
rather than in bash-completion (I'm a upstream developer there).

However, the current yum completion in bash-completion uses some quite useful 
features that aren't available in any released bash-completion versions yet, 
and I'd rather not tear them out or duplicate the code in the completion to be 
submitted for inclusion in yum.  So if it's fine with everyone, I'd like to 
postpone submitting the completion here until there's a real bash-completion 
release out with the needed features.
