I ran into that a while ago.  This is what I have in my (custom) JS shell for user settings (and this works for me):

user.cached = false;
var oldShell = user.command_shell;
bbs.user_config(); // This could directly run user_settings.js instead
user.cached = false;
bbs.user_sync();
// If the user has chosen a different command shell, then exit
// out of this one.
if (user.command_shell != oldShell)
   exit(0);
