suggested minor improvement to ssh argument parsing

[John Vincent]

Hi,
 
I use "ssh" often, and within bash I find it useful to define the IP address in "/etc/hosts" and then use the bash auto-complete feature for the hsot name. For this to work bash needs to see a "@" in front of the host name. This works perfectly for a command like "ssh user at host". However if I want to use the current user by default, I can't get the bash to auto complete the hostname.
 
My suggestion is to allow ssh to accept the hostname like this "ssh @host" as well as the current "ssh host". This would enable the bash auto-complete function to work.
 
I hope someone likes this idea enough to make it happen.
 
Thanks,
 
John Vincent.
