parser.add_argument('-o', '--options', choices_method=completer_method)
+ Of the 5 tab-completion parameters, choices is the only one where argparse validates user input against items

CompletionItem Class:
This class was added to help in cases where uninformative data is being tab completed. For instance,
tab completing ID numbers isn't very helpful to a user without context. Returning a list of CompletionItems
