Stefan, do you have any thoughts on these changes, especially the third 
patch? I did a bit of tinkering with pcomplete functions, and I think it 
should be ok for the Eshell side of things. Eshell-specific pcomplete 
functions can get the real value if they need by examining the 
'pcomplete-arg-value' string property.

For pcomplete functions that aren't Eshell-specific, they'll always get 
the string form of arguments by default, so things should Just Work there.
