Persistent VTY history?

Hi all.

Was just thinking today about if it was ever considered to write the VTY
history out to a file on exiting (and load it on startup)

I'm quite the fan of the up arrow and it's been something that sometimes
annoys that I have no history after leaving the VTY.

It would seem reasonably trivial to implement, and I suppose you could
write out to files in $HOME/.osmo-bsc_history or $HOME/.config or somesuch.

Just wondering if this was ever discussed before, if there's any
unforseen problem with it on my part + if it would be a desirable
feature for anybody else?
