1. Type something passed the prompt sign in EShell, to the left. (which ispermitted by evil-mode I guess...).
Screenshot: http://i59.tinypic.com/33vitnd.png
2. Switch buffer, do something else.
3. Then try to kill EShell buffer (through ibuffer or anything else) andget warning: Text is read-only.
4. Then try to quit Emacs, and unable to do so. I had kill the processmanually through a terminal

I could not reproduce this, but it sounds like fixed bug

http://debbugs.gnu.org/13963

Please either try the Emacs 24.3.91 pretest, or apply the patch from
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13963#23

and recompile em-prompt.el.

This is weird, I am not able to reproduce the bug all the time and therefore I'm not sure what causes it. 
I'll apply the patch and if I can finger point exactly what causes the bug if it happens again, I'll tell you.
Thanks a lot!

Bug wasn't fixed with the patch provided. However, Emacs 24.3.91 contained the solution to my issue
em-prompt.el--------------------- (add-text-properties 0 (length prompt)				'(read-only t				  font-lock-face eshell-prompt				  front-sticky (font-lock-face read-only)				  rear-nonsticky (font-lock-face read-only))---------------------
Thanks!
