Actually, I think this is almost exactly the wrong semantic.  The whole
point was so that zsh scripts (which are pretty much by definition not
"interactive shells" even though the script may be doing terminal I/O)
could have their HUP/INT/QUIT traps tripped even when not executing a
builtin command at the time the signal came in.

If you must limit this to some subset of shells (and not just to some
subset of signals), I beg you to choose some other criteria.  I have no
problem with limiting it to HUP/INT/QUIT, but requiring interact is too
much.
