What are you doing with ! that requires this? Some alternatives I can think of depending on the use case are ^Z or :term.

I do a bunch of stuff with !

!make !ps aux Etc.

The new ! just isn't as useful, and it's harder to get back to see the outputs. The old ! Was just a drop in way quickly do something like ctrl-z command fg.
