Yes. Lot of people seem to use their own versions of cmd.py. Recently,
I also implemented another class on top of cmd.Cmd in order to have
more useful functionality. I have seen at least three implementations
('cmdln' on googlecode, 'CommandLoop' and 'cmd2' on pypi). I hope that
after some heavy use, I will be able to submit some patches to the
standard library module. There is already one in #1294.
