And here's a patch for the master branch. I split out 'eshell/clear' 
into two versions: one for interactive (from M-x) use, and one for use 
as "clear" at the Eshell prompt. For compatibility, you can still call 
'eshell/clear' interactively from M-x, but 99% of the time the 
'eshell/FOO' commands aren't meant to be used that way; hence the new 
'eshell-clear'.
