    Description

      I'm folding all of the existing and future requests for readline-style (bash-style) command line editing features into a single ticket so that we can do more effective estimation and planning. So, requests for ctrl-Z job control, ctrl-R history search, ctrl-K kill and ctrl-Y yank and everything like it is all here. I'll call this a "bug" since it worked in version 1.8 (when linked with readline) though it's basically a "feature" for linenoise.
