Thanks it would be nice if you could document it, even (or especially) if it is likely to change. We may need it in latex (existing packages using \pdfshellescape) and I feel uneasy relying on undocumented code. It does seem a bit strange being overloaded on to os.execute() since it is presumably a fixed integer for the duration of any document, so the function syntax seems slightly odd, but it's certainly workable (if documented:-) so that's more of a minor aside since you mentioned it might change.
