This is nice, but I also like the way fish (http://fishshell.com/) handles auto-completion:

When I type `ssh<tab>`, I get a list of hosts from my ~/.ssh/config plus hosts I have previously used.

I can actually use `ssh hn<tab>` and it gets auto-completed to `ssh hostname` because "hostname" is configured in my ssh config. The same works for `ssh user@<tab>`

fwiw, bash autocompletion does this automagically, too, but you might need to enable it. .ssh/config is definitely the canonical place to keep this stuff, but I like @haosdent's ranking concept. some of my boxes I rarely log into, and others I log into all the time.
