Some Makefiles involve interactive input. Therefore, it would be nice
if the compilation mode would inherit from the shell-mode and when
there is input expected, it would allow user to enter it...
Notably, some compilation or installation targets involve sudo, then
asking for a password...

Do not adjust your mind, there is a fault in reality.

This would be a good thing, but not as easy as it sounds. One
complication is that some of the commands of Compilation mode would
have to be changed.

Wouldn't comint-mode be adequate? Ah, but it's a major mode. Perhaps
compilation-mode ought to be a derived mode -- is that what you mean
by "inherit from" (define-derived-mode)?

(add-hook 'comint-output-filter-functions 'comint-watch-for-password-prompt)
should work in *compilation* buffers as well.
