Can we get support for IPython

Seems much better suited for the job.

Yes, it would be nice indeed. Unfortunately I'd have to implement terminal emulation and that's not exactly easy and I'm trying to keep the dependencies minimal and the library simple.

Which features of IPython would be most useful for you? Autocompletion? History? Line editing? IPython "Magics" (the % commands)`?

Mostly autocompletion and history.

For history (and line editing) you can use manhole-cli or socat (as described in the readme).
