In bash, upon <TAB>, we might see

2024-07-24.cpio.gz
2024-07-25.cpio.gz
--More--
at which point we must first type "q" or "n" before we can enter any
tie-breaking characters. Tie breakers are thrown away if no "q" or "n"
come first. There may be others other than "q" and "n", but "h" or "?"
didn't say anything either.
I say we be allowed to enter those tie breakers anyway, and bash should
treat it like we first added a "q".
Also TAB should act like SPACEBAR, scrolling the --More-- list too.
As to what if our tie breaker actually started with a "q" or "n", well I
didn't think about that too much yet...
