Ehm is it that easy? I don't know the internals of their new stuff. But when I 
read the announcement, it sounded more like they want you to provide 'kind of 
services', so that only part of your app needs to stay alive in the background, 
for instance to play music, or track location data. But you cannot just swap 
out/deschedule the whole process, at least not in a model which uses threads 
instead of processes.

But I am just guessing...
