Comment (by Dan Davis):
Having worked on this briefly, I'm not really sure whether it is a good
idea to support calling rlwrap if it is installed by hand - in that case,
you can subclass the backend.
Both on CentOS 6, CentOS 7, and Ubuntu 16.04, the path to rlwrap is
/usr/bin/rlwrap if it has been installed as a package.
So, the question is whether it is better to look for it in the path with
shutil.which('rlwrap'), or whether it is better to only do this when it is
"properly" installed in /usr/bin/rlwrap. I guess I should then check OS
X, because there it may go elsewhere.
