`bst shell` without `--build` (i.e., a runtime shell) using `%{build-root}`
(`/buildstream-build` in your example) as working directory was never
intentional, as far as I remember. The build root doesn't really have a meaning
in a runtime shell. Build shells still use and will continue to use the
plugin-defined working directory, of course (typically `%{build-root}` or
`%{build-root}/%{command-subdir}`).
I think it would be reasonable to add a command-line option to `bst shell`
to set a working directory if people think that would be useful. Also adding a
`working-directory` option to the `shell` section in `project.conf` could be
considered, although I think the CLI option is more useful and probably
sufficient.
