zsh does that. Also, I have PgUp/PgDown bound to history-search-backward /
forward, useful after typing the first few characters of a command.

Naturally. It also has fully programmable completion, not that I can think
of any other useful variety. Maybe for long-winded gnu-style command
options??? 

What about 'run-help'? I hit F1 at any time to get the man page for the
current command line. Nice for a quick check of the options.
