small rcirc suggestion

[Nic James Ferrier]

I know we're heading for release and this is not intended to disrupt
that in anyway... but I can't see where else to send this suggestion.

I find that I visit the same irc servers all the time and I'd like
history to reflect that:

rcirc-default-port)))
             (nick (read-string "IRC Nick: " rcirc-default-nick))

What would be really nice if history were persisted over emacs
invocations. Could one make history variables customizations and auto
save them?
