This can't be right.  For example, it obviously can't be a link
to /bin/csh.

So since it can be a symbolic link to *some* shells and not others,
telling maintainers "you know which ones we mean, wink wink" isn't any
good.

But the rest of your proposal speaks of some kind of standard
functionality.  If that functionality can be specified in such a way
that it is of practical value to maintainers (and "posix-compliant" is
not), then I'm all for it.
