Won't that ultimately block the running program or lose some input ?

I agree it's not convenient but on the other hand konsole history has been 
broken for quite a few releases already.

I suggest we re-enable infinite, file-based history as an option along with 
the memory-based one we have right now, but either not use a pre-deleted temp 
file or issue a big fat warning telling the user about it.
