No matter how many script devs you complain to, there is _always_ going to be a script that contains bashisms. If /bin/sh _absolutely_ has to point to dash, instead of refusing to run scripts with bashisms, why not do something constructive like scanning the script for bashisms, and then running it in bash? Or perhaps even patching dash to do something useful with bashisms when it comes across them, like issuing a warning, instead of just dying for reasons unknown to the user?
