I've just read notes about "Comint Patch":
╭────
│ If you enter a multi-line SQL statement in an SQLi buffer, you can
│ retrieve it as a multi-line command from the MinibufferHistory. Not so
│ when you exit Emacs and restart it at a later date: As you exit SQLi
│ mode the command history is written to a file; when you enter SQLi mode
│ again the history is loaded one command per line. If you entered
│ multi-line commands, each line of those commands will end up as one
│ command in the input history of your new session.
│
│ This patch will be in Emacs 21.

Aren't we talking of this bug? If yes, why isn't it yet in Emacs, then?
Best regards,
Seb
