-- Beware that it is a hack and only goes about 90% of the way, which is why
-- this functionality is only available as a plugin in the first place
-- (well, and also for customizability).
--
-- The biggest problem is that the way we work with Readline is incompatible
-- with multiline prompts, and normal newlines just don't work. This is being
-- circumvented by using an overflowing single-line prompt with a specially
-- crafted character in the rightmost column that prevents the bar's background
-- from spilling all over the last line.
--
-- There is also a problem with C-r search rendering not clearing out the
-- background but to really fix that mode, we'd have to fully reimplement it
-- since its alternative prompt very often gets overriden by accident anyway.
