I bet that C# would actually make a better scripting language than powershell - you can actually use most of .net easily (especially generics), and async support is a real boon in scripting. It's mostly missing a decent library to do practical process-glue stuff - the .NET `Process` is verbose, incomplete, and a minefield.
