Running Node (or any unix cmd line program) from Shell from a LC Stack

You are right, of course. For one's own machine this is the
simplest. One could even vice versa write a full (temporary)
shell-profile before using shell.
But if you wish to know if a user has installed a 'default'
binary you wish to use at the 'default' place or elsewhere,
then this could fail.
I am for example nearly always working as root (that's the
only way to avoid silly errors) but never would allow others
to use my root shell.

Why not set $PATH or $PATH-additions in the preferences?
