Shiny does work with the deferred renderer (or Lighting and Shadows as it's now called in the Mesh viewer). It's simply handled differently; it reflects light in the form of what's known as specular reflectance, instead of reflecting the sky environment (at one point it reflected both around 2008 and 2009). Different shiny settings effects the overall brightness and distribution of the specular exponent.
