Will LS support it like BB4WIN do.

Earlier LS versions used to support those for years. There even used to be an "Uninstall LiteStep" option in the recovery menu.

Those features were only removed in the most recent 0.24.7 builds. The reason is that still no one has fully figured out the correct install/uninstall procedure, if there even is one. The command line flags implementation had always been a mediocre solution, and at times had simply been wrong. The installers can do a much better job.

who know any small shell switcher with command line support? or get this part of code from BB4WIN?

BB4WIN has only -install/-uninstall commands without any other flags.

the installer comes with a shell switcher

Since bb4win is based on Litestep I would assume that their -install/-uninstall is actually based on the old LS implementation.

But these switches will only be added back in once we know the absolutely correct procedure to install a shell - the procedure which works on 100% of all setups. This was never the case in the past and caused numerous complaints. The installers have always done a better job.
