It would have the feature of being discoverable by tab-completion, starting 
with "search". Meanwhile, there is also

sage: A.*eigen*?
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

In IPython, this is apparently equivalent to "%psearch A.*eigen*". 
"psearch" stands for something like "pattern search", which might make it 
memorable. Do "%psearch?" for help: it also takes various flags.

I can't get any sort of tab completion to work (e.g. A.*eigen<TAB> just 
beeps at me).
