[issue5845] rlcompleter should be enabled automatically

[Larry Hastings]

Larry Hastings added the comment:

This issue seems to have stalled.  But it's still marked as a release blocker, which means I can't release Python 3.4a1 in two days if this issue is still open.

One of three things will happen:
1) This issue is marked "closed".
2) This issue is downgraded from "release blocker".
3) The alpha slips.

IMO the optimal solution is that tab preceded by only whitespace indents, and tab preceded by any non-whitespace character attempts to complete.  Can we goad readline into behaving this way?
