(Last note before the day is over here.)

Let me iterate over the rationale once again:
- I don't think that history is useful of multiline console entries.
- I think of multiline console entries as of snippets, little programs as Joe
has shared.
- I'd like user to be able to run such snippets and even debug them (i.e. break
on errors)

Now I am not sure that screenshots that I attached describe good solution, but
they at least made me think about the problem :) It does not really make much
sense to introduce such a complexity in the console view, especially when it is
opened for Elements Panel. My second screenshot is especially not good about
it. At the same time, it would fit the Scripts panel well.

Imagine that:
- in addition to the existing scripts in the combo box, you have a number of
editable ones.
- for them 'play/pause' button is available
- you get full-blown debugging functionality on these
- results are still dumped into the console
