We have this in the TODO:
o Add plsh server-side shell language (Peter E)
This is Peter's language that allows shell calls. I think Peter wants
to add it for 7.3 and I think it is a good idea.

This is probably a language looking for a purpose before adding it to
the core. Here's what I use it for; probably abusively too! Could use
untrusted perl to spawn system calls, but shell scripts are much nicer
for shell work not to mention transactional updates of structure and
control scripts
