Description

It would be really cool if VyOS could show the interface description (when set) on autocompleting interface names. That would help avoiding stupid errors.

$ show interfaces
tun0             192.168.10.121/31                 u/u  VRF VoIP Tunnel to Customer xx
tun1             172.16.255.1/31                   u/u  VRF VoIP Tunnel to Customer xy

Currently (both in configure and in show mode)

vyos@vyos# set vrf name VoIP protocols static route 172.16.136.72/29 interface <TAB>
Possible completions:
 > <text>               Gateway interface name
 > tun0                 
 > tun1

Desired

vyos@vyos# set vrf name VoIP protocols static route 172.16.136.72/29 interface <TAB>
Possible completions:
 > <text>               Gateway interface name
 > tun0                 VRF VoIP Tunnel to Customer xx
 > tun1                 VRF VoIP Tunnel to Customer xy
