Then where is that choice? How will it be done? The proposal has shown one way of doing it. The existing dash package uses dpkg-divert, which is unsuitable on a larger scale (larger than the one dash package). And to have bash removable dash has to force itself as /bin/sh. So there goes even that little choice. What alternative do you speak off where the user will have a choice of what is /bin/sh?
