Uh, if we are going to do that, why not just add the boolean columns to
the existing view? Clearly renaming procpid isn't worth creating
another view.
I'm not completely set on this either way; that's why I suggested a
study that digs into typical monitoring system queries would be useful.
Even the current view is pushing the limits for how much you can put
into something that intends to be human-readable though. Adding a new
pile of columns to it has some downsides there.
I hadn't ever tried to write down everything I'd like to see changed
here until this week, so there may be further column churn that
justifies a new view too. I think the whole idea needs to get chewed on
a bit more.
