--------------------------------

             Summary: Inconsistent tab completion behaviour between commands and arguments
                 Key: AS7-6004
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6004
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: CLI
            Reporter: Jeff Mesnil
            Assignee: Alexey Loubyansky
            Priority: Minor


When tab is used for completion, the behavior changes when there is only 1 remaining candidate.

For commands, when the completion leads to a single candidate, a whitespace is appended and we can proceed to the arguments
For arguments using a TabCompleter, when the completion leads to a single candidate, no whitespace is appended and we have to type it to be able to proceed to the next argument
 
Example:

* deployment-over<TAB>
=> will complete to deployment-overlay<WHITESPACE><CURSOR> (a whitespace is appended to the single candidate)

* deployment-overlay a<TAB>
=> will complete to deployment-over add<CURSOR> (no whitespace appended even though add is the only candidate matched)
