I have very strong demands on my command recall capabilities. I find control-P to be the single most useful keystroke in my repertoire. Command number recall *never* makes my list. The zsh feature that lets me edit multi-line commands is a major hit with me. Control-R, if incremental, works quite well, although that isn't usually the case either. People I work with use command number recall. The same people who never fix their shell from csh to bash/zsh. The people who use the same thing they first learned to use over a decade ago. A few of them even type 'h' to see their history, then switch over to the mouse to cut + paste the command - and if the line extends across multiple lines, they do multiple cut + paste operations, because they are not confident in understanding whether the lines are line-wrapped, or newline terminated. Allowing these people to live in the dark ages doesn't appeal to me. Certainly not if it takes effort to do so. :-) I don't buy it either.
