Loss of the shebang changes the mode in which emacs opens the files 
(from Shell-script[bash] to Conf[space] in my case).  I agree that a #! 
comment is not appropriate for a file that is not executable as a 
standalone file, but it becomes harder to edit the file correctly unless 
we replace it with some other way of letting editors realize that the 
contents of each file is still meant to be consumed by bash.

Something like this would work:

# hey emacs, this file will be sourced by bash: -*- sh -*-
