> How is that related to this ticket? If there is some problem with Sage
not killing its child processes when it dies, then that will exist
regardless of whether the Sage processes are named "python" or something
else. No?
Well if the child processes are not killed, it defeats the main purpose of
this ticket. The eventual use of this ticket is to be able to identify a
Sage process and kill it remotely/automatically (as in from a command
line) instead of having to go through a manual process.
If we only rename the Sage process, which shouldn't be too hard to do,
then the user will be under a false impression when it is terminated but
there are other child processes running amok.
