NAK. By doing this, you are denying a golden opportunity to GNOME. The gProcessDisplayTaskListGTKWidget object MUST have a reason to hide from the user all those pesky processes with names in brackets. If your patch is accepted, the oportunity to once again prove to all that GNOME knows Better[tm] will be lost, as there won't be a reason to commit the patch to gProcessDisplayTaskListGTKWidget anymore.
