Holy hell, you don't know how long I've been trying to figure out
exactly that (but with systemctl instead of docker). At one point
I even to screw up so badly that when I did `scrs <TAB>` my computer
simply rebooted itself. Dumbfounded, I immediately tested it again
as soon as my OS booted to make sure I wasn't going crazy and (as you
probably saw coming from a mile away) promptly rebooted my computer
with another fateful <Tab>.

But this works *perfectly*.

I didn't ask the original question, but nonetheless thank you!
