As part of the big bug review for 16.04 LTS I have tested this on 15.10
and the bug is still there.  I think this is a feature request rather
than a bug.

Bug description:
  When typing in Alt+F2 lens, the results correctly include commands
  starting with these letters. But when typing a space after a command,
  to add an option/argument, it only displays what is currently typed.
  It should return the same results as pressing TAB in a terminal.

  Steps to reproduce:

  In a terminal, type "ubuntu-bug unit" and press TAB two times.
  The completion lists several results.

  In Alt+F2 lens, type "ubuntu-bug unit".
  The results display only one useless result: "ubuntu-bug unit".

  The same can be done with more common commands, like `ls --`.
