I was pretty sure it worked when I revamped the readline support[1],
many years ago, but effectively I'm not able to do it now, and I find
this
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/41
where Chet Ramey says it's something that bash injects into the
library... and that it should be easy to implement by the calling
application.
