Besides, when your favourite shell is hosed, you most likely cannot log 
in anyways, since usually root login is disabled for sshd.  And then 
it's about the only case when it's getting tough.. when it's a machine 
that's hosted somewhere in a rack at a hosing provider, probably one of 
the most common situations today in business environments.  When one has 
physical access to the machine, it's a non-issue.
