Shouldn't the on-disk history initially be prepended to in-core history
(which might only be what has been sourced so far from the profiles etc.)?

Then, if HISTAPPEND is set any new history written to the file since it
was last read could be appended to in-core history.

Do you have plans for adding HISTSIZE as well?
