Title: Play 2.2 Bash/Shell Bug

As someone else in the Play Google group has confirmed this issue and was able to reproduce it, I am reporting it as a bug:

I've noticed a problem on several of my machines since my most recent Play upgrade to version 2.2. After issuing either the "play start" or "play run" commands and hitting "ctrl + d" to return to the prompt, I lose the ability to see any further input in the shell command line. I've verified this happening on Ubuntu 13.04 directly, remote access to a Linux box using Putty, and in Mac OSX terminal. Windows command prompt seems unaffected as far as I know.

Steps to reproduce:

issue the command play run or play start
hit control+D to return to the prompt after the server starts

You should notice that you no longer have the ability to view your input (text) in the terminal and have to start a new session to get it back. Line breaks are also missing.
