Wouldn't comint-mode be adequate? Ah, but it's a major mode. Perhaps
compilation-mode ought to be a derived mode -- is that what you mean
by "inherit from" (define-derived-mode)?
Notably, some compilation or installation targets involve sudo, then
asking for a password...
(add-hook 'comint-output-filter-functions 'comint-watch-for-password-prompt)
should work in *compilation* buffers as well.
