          Issue ID: 15276
           Summary: Allow specification of shell for
                    spawnShell/executeShell/pipeShell
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: phobos
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: markisaa umich.edu

We should allow callers to specify a particular shell to be used, be it sh,
bash, zsh, or what the user has in their SHELL environment variable.

One of the things that made the fix for
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14282 so jarring is that there's no
easy way to work around it to achieve the old behavior. That fix ended up being
reverted.
