I don't understand your approach guys.

Ok, there is HISTFILE environment variable, available in BASH and probably in some other shells. So, why, instead of waiting passively for all the shells to agree on a single history mechanism, can't the Konsole make use of this variable as-is?

First, it will make the command histories immediately usable at least for the BASH users.

Second, it will provide an incentive to the shell maintainers to implement support for this feature as well.

I believe a more active approach here would be beneficial...
