I actually think on this one we're better off reporting bugs to Debian; 
the Debian maintainers who I reported bugs to have been receptive to 
moving things from /usr/sbin to /usr/bin that non-root users might want to 
run.  Getting these things fixed upstream is a better fix and will help us 
avoid feeling like we should change the shell defaults back in the future.
