I have to agree that being able to up-arrow through commands done during 
my last session, whether 5 minutes, or 5 days, or 5 months later, can be 
very useful and convenient.

Couple that with the sister-feature of being able to back-scroll through 
all the terminal output from the last session, and now you are really 
talking useful and convenient.
