Andrew Svetlov added the comment:

BTW, according to PEP 11 (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0011/) 
Python 3.4 will remove code for "Windows systems where COMSPEC points to 
command.com". There are only winner: cmd.exe as well known shell good as 
default, command.com is gone.

cmd.exe can be assumed as default shell as well as sh for posix platforms.

About subprocess: I like to add something to point str (or pathlib path when 
accepted) as shell, but it's definitely another issue.
