Why does awesome set the $SHELL environment to /usr/bin/awesome?
xterm uses this to tell which shell to run as default command,
and as long as I remember, it has given the user a straight forward
way to choose his shell for use with X11.
With awesome, simply spawning xterm from a menu or key shortcut
obviously won't work.

I am mainly curious about why.  The obvious solution is to hardcode
a specific shell in the awesome config.  Annoying coupling, but workable :-)
