Yeah, that's what i meant by 'array-caching mechanism'.
I'd used that for opkg, but when i tried it here i found that the completion
system struggles when there are hundreds of thousands of possibilities; unless
you already have several characters on the line to narrow the list down, the
shell just hangs. That didn't seem like something i should put people through.
Looking at how APT packages are handled, though, i guess it's actually kind of
the same situation there — so maybe i'm overly worried about it?
