The term "traditional" means "familiar", and it's very important to be familiar! To me, that means offering bash, zsh, csh, etc easily to users of the system. That doesn't mean we should pick one of those and extend it with snappiness, and it doesn't mean that the login experience needs to be one of those (or all of those based on user config!). It just means that you need to be able to get to one of those shells in a single easy command (or maybe two if you need to install something like comfy first :).
