Good to know
------------
If the `--module-path` (`-M`) or `--inventory-file` (`-i`) is on the command line, the completion will use it.

For the completion on module name, the completion script build a cache of modules names.<br />
You can set the cache timeout with the environement variable `ANSIBLE_COMPLETION_CACHE_TIMEOUT`, the default value is `120` secondes.
