I do not know how well zsh is positioned to become default shell in distros. My goal is towards enhancing the default shell found in mainstream distributions. This helps in training new users, and getting bigger adoption of FLOSS to the masses. For example, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Spec/EnhancedBash for the spec to change the default shell settings. It's an amazing usability opportunity and task. And a really difficult one as well. Cheers, Simos
