Good.

So we don't need to complete aliases in the equal context anymore.

What I think would be useful though is if equals expansion worked for
autoloaded functions, expanding to the full name of the file holding the
function. Or if that would cause problems, some sort of similar way such
as an option to functions or autoload?
