This seems like it would be a lot simpler if shell-command(-on-region) did not unconditionally erase its output buffer. Although that behaviour is long-standing, it seems unfriendly. It would be easier for callers that wanted that to erase their own output buffers. It's less simple for callers that want to preserve existing output to do so with the current system.
