We are cheating here, true, we say "sh" when it's really "bash". But I don't 
think it's a real problem, so I tend to close the upstream bug with WONTFIX. 
It's similar to highlighting TRUE and FALSE in C code - these aren't standard 
identifiers, yet they are common enough and we highlight them.
"Simple fix" above is not acceptable, there must be a language with id "sh".
"Extended fix" is possible but wrong. If there is sh.lang, then it will be used 
for all sh-like scripts, including bash scripts (at least with our advanced 
unix technologies).
All in all, it's a small issue without a small fix.
