GHCi should keep a persistent history file

It would be nice if GHCi kept a persistent history of commands like bash does. This would be especially useful in testing: if one is trying to get a certain command to work, and the command is at all complicated, it is annoying to have to copy and paste or retype the command every time you want to see if the function works.
