In your message describing (I presume) the direction XENIX is going with 
regard to "." files, you say that sh and csh are filters as opposed to 
interactive, and that filters don't get default/startup files. Does this
mean that .cshrc, .login, and .profile are to become no-no's ? 

It seems that a number of programs deny the disjointness of filter/interactive.
sh, csh, ed, ex are a few.
