If you pass shlex.split() None for any reason it will run forever waiting for input, w/o outputting anything.

That seems like the wrong behavior.

This won't fix, because that comes from split() creating a shlex() instance, which takes None as sys.stdin.

But I've added a documentation note in rev. 56084, 56085 (2.5).
