Probably a list of what's still not quite right about _complete_opts should
be included in the comment at the top of it; and the usage comment should
mention that one trailing : means a required argument, two trailing : mean
an optional one, as per the latest GNU getopts.

Finally, in that vein, something ought to be done with $opt_arg besides just
including it in $with_arg.  The 'case "${#no_arg}-${#with_arg}" in' is an
interesting optimization, but I'm not sure it covers all the cases.

Yes, but again most of the _files should be changed to something that can
interpret CVS/Entries.
