 FWIW, it's also insane (even more so) on xterm - on xterm, backspace
 makes the cursor jump several lines up the terminal as well as
 returning to the beginning of the line.

+- the Backspace issue has been resolved (tho thanks to me testing this
+bug report, I discovered I had broken it in a different way >_<)
+
+I'm about to commit a fix for my new Backspace breakage to the 1.2.4
+branch
+
+
+- That said... ok, Ctrl-D for me is intercepted by the shell and halts
+execution of IronPython. I'm not sure how to fix that...
+
+
+- Arrow keys... hmmm this might be difficult to solve, I think,
+because we handle our own echoing, e.g. once the chars appear on the
+screen, they are in the ReadLine() buffer that we are building. This
+code might have to be rethought...
+
+actually... I might be able to hack something up for this. I smell a
+challenge :)
