You can set conman to behave almost as you desire.  Conman includes a
program to set conman options, which I believe is called setcman.
One of the options is for conman to keep a true history.  It will then
put every command on the history buffer, even if it is a repeated
command.  You get the last command you executed at the end of the
history list, but you lose the advantage of having only a single copy
of the command in the list.
