Since readline is a standard module on most unix systems and linux, there was no need to implement pyreadline for these systems. It would have been difficult anyway, since the windows console is completely different to unix consoles (which are fairly compatible to each other, a outcome of POSIX efforts). -- Freedom is always the freedom of dissenters.
