do script when scripting terminal

I've found, to my dismay, that the "do script" command of Terminal does not execute its script via "/bin/sh" the way "do shell script" of standard additions does. Instead, it appears to run the script in the user's login shell. This is problematic. I know there are ways around it, but they all have side effects. I'm hoping to get some feedback from an Apple guru as to whether it would be worthwhile filing a bug report; I've gotten so many that were duplicates, I'd hate to file another.

Paul
