Interesting idea, never thought about that. I guess it depends on ones
needs. As I always have a bunch of (dedicated) terminal windows open, I
simply generate history files per shell / level ...

  export HISTFILE=$HOME/.history/${TTY##*/}.$SHLVL

... and if I need to retrieve a command on another machine, grep is my
friend.
