For objects that have lots of methods, it's not very easy to find one by
doing 

    X.<TAB>

since there's just so much. In analogy with search_def, search_src, etc,
I wish there was, say, search_methods. On a matrix, for example:

    search_methods(A, 'eigen')

which would, in effect, do

    A.<TAB> | grep eigen

and give me

A.eigenmatrix_left
A.eigenmatrix_right   
A.eigenspaces_left    
A.eigenspaces_right   
A.eigenvalues         
A.eigenvectors_left   
A.eigenvectors_right  
A.left_eigenmatrix
A.left_eigenspaces
A.left_eigenvectors
A.right_eigenmatrix
A.right_eigenspaces
A.right_eigenvectors

I suspect there's a trac ticket related to this but I'm too lazy at the
moment to find it. (But not, evidently, too lazy to complain about
the issue...)
