There are many good reasons for the changes proposed in this thread, but I'm
not sure if discoverability is one.  Relying on autocompleting a filename to
figure out existing tooling for database maintenance and DBA type operations
seems like a fragile usecase.

If commandline discoverability is of importance, providing a summary of the
tools in "man postgresql" seems like a better option.
