No promises... but have you tried setting your default editor ($EDITOR) to
emacsclient?  You can run one main GNUemacs, and call (server-start nil) in
your .emacs file.  Then every time you use the editor "emacsclient", your
current emacs will get interrupted, and start editing this new file.  C-x #
will send this interrupting buffer back to the client.  This is useful if you
have job control, or beter yet, a windowing system (like screen or X).  I've
never actually tried using emacsclient from emacs shell mode, though, and
the current implementation of emacs I use does not have emacsclient or
emacsserver, or I could tell you for sure if this works.  Good luck!
