I use an LP org-document with zsh-codefragments to generate a CLIF
testplan - the script is tangled, then executed and the output -- the
generated .ctp file -- exported. In this case I'd prefere it to have the
shell from the :shebang option used to run the tangled program, not
/bin/sh, so that exporting the output inside the document and running
the tangled program standalone produce the same result.

At the moment I have to set the shell document- or session-wide to zsh
to get reproducible behaviour.

Whenever the export/execution is part of the generated document and of
the generated product (the tangled code) I would like it, not to have to
sides to configure.

I don't know, if I make myself clear -- If not, please tell me so and I
try to distill an example out of the cases I encountered at work, where
I was wondering why some things did not work as I expected.

Kind regards,
Tom
