List pgsql-hackers
tab completion for "alter extension foobar update" yields a list of
tables.  That is actively misleading.  (This is not new in 9.6.)

It should complete to nothing, or "TO" followed by a list of available versions.

The attached patch takes approach 2.  I thought of adding a ";" to the
list completions to signify you can optionally end the command
immediately after UPDATE and have it be a complete command.  But I
thought perhaps that was too clever, and unprecedented.

Will add to commitfest-next

Cheers,

Jeff
