powershell.exe tab completion - list alternatives?

I've never really used PowerShell before, and playing with it a bit, it looks like it uses cmd.exe's style of tab completion (fill in the first likely candidate, and then you can use tab to cycle through other alternatives). I'd much prefer the way e.g. bash works, where if there are multiple candidates, it shows a list of them.

Is there an easy way to turn this on, by any chance?

I have seen this implemented with an add-on called PowerTab (original post). For script editing there are some editors that support this sort of drop down Intellisense. Check out the free PowerGUI editor.
