I consider this a MAINTAINER^case-by-base basis.
We've sent a lot of patches to GNOME upstream so they stop hardcoding /bin/bash 
and use env bash instead (or /bin/sh when possible oc).
If people do stupid things with their PATH, then so be it -- *MUCH* more things 
will break from setting up a "stupid" path.
Install plan9port and put /usr/local/plan9/bin/ in from of your path then have 
fun... I can tell you that many things outside of scripts from packages will 
break.
