Yes, that's also common (at least those programs aren't broken by the change). Other programs checking for "t": tcsh, Maude, zsh. For easy optional backwards compatibility, what do you think about making the new behaviour depend on a variable like "emacs-environment-variable" with possible values 'path (use path; default) and t (old behaviour)?
