Not exactly.

1. It doesn't work with multiline command (sorry, I had to be more precise
on this). E.g.
if .... then
if> kkldsfkl; ^X^H

Doesn't push the whole in history.

2. It echows the whole command (well, rather cosmetic).

Actually standard 'push-line' would suite just fine - _if_ it wouldn't pop
line again after next command.
