It might be non-obvious, but I don't see how else it would work: comint
is the only built-in subsystem we have that implement a general
read-evel-print-loop. So we have 'M-x shell' and 'M-x ielm', for
example, both using it as well (not to mention inf-python, inf-ruby, etc).
And since we wanted, apparently, to have async-shell-command support
user input (the command can be 'sh', for example), it uses parts of
comint for its work too (comint-output-filter and the major mode with
all its local bindings -- not sure if something else too, but this is
already a lot).
An alternative would be to have separate user options for each of the
above features which would bind comint's options under the cover. But
that's not very economical.
