To be fair, SQL has a syntax that is hard to provide (for example) autocompletion for, as the table comes after the fields, and the field names can be ambiguous.

Postgresql command line (psql) still manage to do an excellent job at it (but I concede it's pretty hard to replicate)

IntelliJ does SQL completion quite nicely based on a connection it can make with your DB: http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/features/database_tools.html

It seems this would be bypassed by letting the IDE hit the DB to fetch table information.
