 Description   

We ought to document the line editing functionality the shell (v 2.1 and later, mostly) implements.

Progress on this front is tracked here, though the matrix of supported features might not be canonical:

I should be wrapping up the line editing changes soon, perhaps without adding more, and will update the spreadsheet in the SERVER-4312 ticket with the final list. I will add some information that might be useful about the expected environment – "terminal" program on Linux/OSX, console on Windows, etc.
