More questions regarding shell escapes:

In 3.7i, M-X ! prompts for a command to send to a CLI.  It seems to do
something, but not very useful.  Why do you have to know which CLI is
going to get the command?  Even being able to do M-X ! dir would be
quite useful to me, and COMMAND.TOS from the developers kit does that 
(admittedly, that's about all it does, but...)
