Hi Jim,

Thanks for having a look at my patch, but please don't top post on
PostgreSQL lists.

It doesn't tab complete the AT TIME ZONE operator itself, just the
timezone name after it, so this sholud work:

# SELECT now() AT TIME ZONE <tab><tab>

or

# SELECT now() AT TIME ZONE am<tab>

However, looking more closely at the grammar, the word AT only occurs in
AT TIME ZONE, so we could complete the operator itself as well. Updated
patch attatched.
