Yes, it almost looked like perl.  :-)
May I suggest a few further improvements?

I certainly wouldn't want tcsh.  How about looking at
$SHELL, and if it doesn't exist, then fall back to the
standard shell (which is /bin/sh).

Also, the last command (jexec) should be preceded by
"exec" so the shell doesn't hang around.  So the last
part of the script would look like this:

    jail_path=$(jls | awk '$1=='$jail_id' {print $4}')

    if [ -z "$SHELL" -o ! -x "$jail_path/$SHELL" ]; then
            login_shell="$SHELL"
    else
            login_shell="/bin/sh"
    fi

    echo "Logging in to $jail_hostname"
    exec jexec $jail_id $login_shell

Best regards
   Oliver

PS:  By the way, here's another useful script that displays
processes running in jails, ordered by jail IDs:
