Now you're making it sound like a bug, just as I'm starting to accept
that it's a misfeature :)

You're right, it's not clear what he means.
I started a thread on gmane.emacs.help to clear this up once and for
all:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.help/61581
Only one respondent so far, but that's enough to convince me that it's a
misfeature and not a bug, so perhaps we should mark 1973 as done/closed
(I'd do this myself but I don't know how).
The question for me now is how to make buffer *Async Command Output*
behave like buffer *shell*, an odd thing to be doing given that they are
both in Shell mode!
