It would be nice to have a multi-shells as a gnu emacs feature, but it not
difficult to get two or more shell-mode windows with the current setup.
All you have to do is to rename the *shell* buffer via M-x rename-buffer,
and the next M-x shell command will create a new shell-mode buffer named
*shell*.  The first buffer is still in shell-mode, and you can watch its
output, etc.
