FWIW, ksh93 (as packaged in Debian) has this functionality enabled... it
seems to be available by default in various *nix incarnations as well,
such as Solaris 9 & 10. This doesn't make the feature a good idea, of
course, but it does appear to be commonly available.
A quick perusal of the zsh manpage seems to indicate that it can do this
as well (albeit with quite different syntax), but I didn't take the time
to verify.
