My ~/.inputrc maps <up> and <down> to history-search-backward and history-
search-forward in programs that use readline. This functionality is simply
not available in haskeline. If it was, I couldn't bind it to <up>/<down>
because as far as I can see haskeline only offers vi-style key remapping,
not binding to input editing functions. There also doesn't seem to be a
way to add actions from Haskell; getInputLine is a black box without
hooks.
So what I want right now is history-search-backward/forward but I also
think there should be a comprehensive set of bindable line editing
functions and a way to define new functions in Haskell.
