Not quite.  It presents you with the correct completions, but it won't
actually complete anything beyond the first namespace, or colon.  Try
the following:

rake db

in a ruby-on-rails project directory.  You'll be presented with a
bunch of possible completions, including "db:migrate" and the command
line is completed to

rake db:

(in my setup anyway).  Then, when I type an 'm' and run completion
again, no completions are available.  Actually, after the unique
prefix is completed, i.e., 'db:' no completions are available any
more.

Adding 'r:|[:]=*' to ones matcher-list makes it work, but should this
really be necessary?
