libedit is editline in macOS, which offers readline emulation (according
to the man page.) It looks like even in the latest macOS it's still
based on the 2012 NetBSD version:

Yes, it works. There is a subset of readline commands. Simple example in
Emacs mode: C-t works, but M-t does not (M-d also works.)

Agreed. If you have any changes you would like me try out or suggestions
for how to debug, I am happy to keep looking.
