Probably familiar enough for bash people:

Not a terminal emulator (although I think it can do Terminal escape sequences if needed):

It's still not a terminal emulator, but you can use Clink [1] to get readline in cmd. Works great with ConEmu or as part of cmder, as others have mentioned.

Very high ROI. Removes a lot of stress you got just typing cmd.exe.

I knew about ConEmu (though I'm not 100% happy with it either). I'll take a look at PSReadLine, thanks.
