Storing history in SQLite is such a wonderful idea, I wonder why someone doesn’t just add it to readline/libedit/etc, then all apps (which use those libraries) can do it.

Although, I wonder if that might cause problems, if apps already link to SQLite and they might expect a different version, or if unstable apps might cause concurrency/corruption/etc issues with a shared per-user history DB. To avoid all that, maybe a per-user history daemon with a Unix domain socket?
