Hello internals.

I'm actually using proctitle extension and it's very handy because we run
like 10+ daemons written in PHP that we manage. Without it we would be lost
:) But the actual awareness of the proctitle PECL extension is very low.
Also it does not work on windows.
I'm all over the idea to add it to the core and that will be better than
current proctitle extension. Also I don't see a major effort required to
keep this thing up to date. OS'es don't just change how process titles are
set overnight, I would imagine that being huge thing to do without a very
early notice.

The RFC is superior to proctitle in every way, so i'd say go for it.
Although small on the outside, it's actually a huge thing and will allow to
actually start building some serious stuff without using some half-baked
non-maintained extensions.

My 0.02$.

Arvids.
