Good point.

Still, we have the problem that `pcomplete/<CMD>` should be used only
for external commands (because they are independent from the language
used to write the command, a.k.a the shell), but for things like `cd` we
should be more precise to distinguish the completion rules for Eshell's
`cd` from those of bash's `cd`.
