I'd rather people just use !/bin/bash if they absolutely need it. Ubuntu made a switch for a reason - extreme speed up in boot time (amongst others) which I think is an important enough aspect of something booted from DVD or USB stick. We've done pretty good so far not needing to use BASH though and I think we can still manage without it. Not to say I haven't thought about starting some python scripts to do certain things.
