Title:
Description column for System Monitor
Status in The GNOME System Monitor:
Invalid
Status in “gnome-system-monitor” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor
Add a 'Description' column to the GNOME System Monitor.
GNOME System Monitor lists processes, and the processes can sometimes
have cryptic filenames which the user does not understand what the
process is for. So I suggest to create an 'Description' column to
explain the process.
The user sees "gdm", "atd", "cron", "trackerd", "nm-applet", "sh", and
get confused because he don't know what it is.
He look in the Description column and sees that "gdm" is "GNOME
Display Manager", "sh" is "shell", and "nm-applet" is "network-
management applet", etc.
Because when a user checks the running processes and sees "gvfsd" he
have no idea what it is, with this Description column, he can easily
see that it is the "GNOME virtual file system daemon".
