Brian McCallister just posted the nicest
bash ssh completion trick. Check it out:

#!/bin/sh
SSH_COMPLETE=( $(cat ~/.ssh/known_hosts | \
                 cut -f 1 -d ' ' | \
                 sed -e s/,.*//g | \
                 uniq | \
                 egrep -v [0123456789]) )
complete -o default -W "${SSH_COMPLETE[*]}" ssh

Yum!
