These were the processes donated back by GeoServer.
We can change the package but I need the processes to maintain
their name, e.g., gs:PolygonExtraction, when they are published
by GeoServer WPS

I'd also want other WPS merrily picking up our processes to show
in their users face that the processes come from GeoServer, since
apparently we are the only ones fool enough to donate back our
work in a place where everybody else can use it.
I will eventually have to forget about this, but when I see other
WPS using the processes I've developed for GeoServer, knowing
that they never contributed back squat, I really feel robbed.

For direct use you don't indeed need to go through the process API
at all, just instantiate the process and call the execute method.
But I don't know why Jody made a factory class for vector processes,
but not for raster ones, I was actually wondering myself too.
