At the very least, Ubuntu should make sure user's rc scripts (~/.profile, which sources ~/.bashrc for instance) does not contain dash-incompatible code by default, as it currently does. Programs like gdm source those but are run from dash resulting in user's stuff not being sourced before startup applications from ~/.config/autostart are lounched.
