What's the specific request here?
That bash interpret multiline commands retrieved from command history as a
whole and not run the rest of the lines as separate commands when the first
line is changed.
Ah, I see: you want any "lines" that readline returns that contain embedded
newlines to be parsed as a compound_list instead of a series of newline-
terminated commands (what bash calls a simple_list). Kind of like they had
been enclosed in braces. I'm not sure I could do that much violence to the
parser.
