Yes, CCL is supported. Mind that CCL's background thread will read
from stdin in competition with any interactive subprocess you run,
though, unless you use my single-threaded-ccl to refrain from running
that thread (at which point you have to manually flush stdout and
stderr).

I believe that :append is indeed possible with CCL and launch-program,
but you'd have to double-check.
