I've been sort of out the dev loop for several months, but I'm pretty sure that 
'lack of shell-script support' means that shell scripts are not currently 
recognized by the interface parser. That means that a shell script invoking 
GRASS will not produce an automatically generated wxPython GUI window. 

However, I'm pretty sure that shell scripts--like any other kind of language 
that can call GRASS--still can be used to invoke GRASS commands.
