No, this won't cut it.

<up> <down> should still work on the history.
<return> should try to exec what is in the minibuffer now.
<tab> will try again to complete what you already have
<any other key> should just be added to what already is in the
minibuffer.

Nah... I'd like it to work almost just like emacs.
