OK, that's exactly what I wanted to know.  It's a good idea, but I
don't have time right now.  If nobody picks it up soon, feel free to
"remind" us every once in a while.
It should be fairly easy.  Use ring.el (standard library) to provide a
ring of past sexps executed, hook into eval-print-last-sexp to maybe
push the exp on the ring, and write a simple function to rotate the
ring and insert the top in the buffer.
I wonder if in the long run maybe we shouldn't unify it with ilisp mode.
