I agree that more easily recalling previously sent input would improve
interactions with bots and services. But what about something more
general, like commands resembling
previous-matching-history-element
next-matching-history-element
and/or
previous-complete-history-element
next-complete-history-element
from simple.el?
Folks are already used to these interfaces, and many analogs exist
across the Emacs universe and without as well (think readline's
reverse-search-history and history-search-backward, for example).
