Comment (by gMagicScott):

 I agree that there are many shortcodes that leave content distorted when
 totally removed, but I think the interest in modifying how shortcodes are
 removed is more an interest of the plugin/theme that ''provides'' the
 shortcode, than whoever calls `strip_shortcodes()`

 A better solution may be to add a filter to the return value of
 `strip_shortcode_tag()`. Individual plugins and themes can then manage the
 output, knowing the desired result is to remove it.

 Patch attached (strip_shortcodes.1.diff), or on
