There's a point of diminishing returns where running with something that can cause a problem is completely practicable and justifiable. We don't need the nteenth "Shell that protects you from malicious paste" functionality. Just use root judiciously. If you can't be comfortable running as root and keeping yourself out of trouble, then you really don't know enough to use the machine safely.
You must be 10% smarter than the piece of equipment. No amount of good natured or well-intentioned "protect you from yourself" coding will obviate you of the need to know what you are doing, the limitations of the machine, and the limitations of the program you're using. In fact, all it does is increase the bar for how many things worth of minutiae you have to account for.
