Yes!
I can't comment the rest except for what
.. function:: input([prompt])
states, which Davide surely have read himself.
Anyway it seems to be a good idea to replace parts of the code
where such severe bugs can sleep for such a long time.
This code will not be used automatically on, yes, *all* modern
UNIX platforms (don't let me think on what "modern" means here).
So if there are no dependencies i don't know of (but even without
knowing i would think there should be none - this is readline),
it seems that providing a simple Python-based fallback
implementation, which will use functions which themselves will be
used daily in real life, is a good idea.
