Hi Yong, Thanks for starting this thread.
I believe the direction depends on the type of CLI experience we want to provide. I see two main options: 1. Improving the "look and feel" of the existing CLI without adding significant interaction. 2. Transitioning from a CLI to a full shell (similar to the Karaf Shell I worked on, which utilizes jline for features like completion and binding https://karaf.apache.org/manual/latest/#_using_the_console). These options cater to different personas. At this stage, I am more in favor of the first option, as you described in the GitHub issue. Just my two cents.
