Announcing LibreJS 4.6!

GNU LibreJS aims to address the JavaScript problem described in Richard Stallman's article The JavaScript Trap[1]. LibreJS is a free add-on for GNU IceCat and other Mozilla-based browsers. It blocks nonfree nontrivial JavaScript while allowing JavaScript that is free and/or trivial.

I'd be willing to bet I know a fuck of a lot more about this than you do.
Bash is a system shell in the sense that it's meant to be a shell interface to the OS. It specialises in things like spawning processes and creating pipes. It has a specialised language optimised for this sort of thing (which is also called bash).
A shell like IPython is just a fancy REPL for Python. If you're using it as your passwd shell you're doing it wrong.

(And yes, it is part of the system. An OS isn't just a kernel. POSIX defines sh as being part of the base system, and most systems just provide bash to do that.)
