Since I've had 0.7.0 in rc mode for a while, I don't want any potentially 
distabilizing changes right now, so I'll leave this as 0.7.1 material, but it 
sounds like a great plan.

Would you be willing to contribute this to the ipython codebase?  It's BSD 
licensed, I typically put in a copyright notice of the original author in all 
files which aren't originally mine.

Yup.  We're going to need an official ipython-as-shell team formed, as my day 
to day work is a bit too orthogonal to this for me to make it justice.  I get 
the feeling that Ville and you may get signed up ;)
