[R] Adding parameters for Benchmark normal distribution in shapiro.test

[Jeff Newmiller]

Wouldn't that be because the sample is not being compared to a specific distribution but rather to many possible distributions by MC? [1]

If you think that need not be the case, perhaps you can write your own test... but then it will probably be answering a different question?
