The .psql_history file is naturally used by different DB connections
(distinguished by a different combination of host + port + database + user).
At least in my multi-database working environment, this leads sometimes to
frustration because there are commands that cannot or should not be used by
different connections.
To solve this, psql could keep a separate command history file for each
connection.
I will be happy to make this my first contribution to PostgreSQL's code.
What do you say?

Regards,
Jonathan
