I'd argue the opposite --- the existing shell-script version is entirely

+1.
It might be a bit more portable if we replaced the shebang lines on perl
scripts with
#!/bin/env perl
That's probably worth considering. MSVC users would still have to call
"perl scriptname" or possibly "\path\to\perl scriptname", but I think
that's OK, and they will have to do that anyway.
