I think we're all waiting for something like 'process' to make its way back
to the Finder dictionary. This obviously goes to the heart of what makes OS
X different from what came before. Anyone trying to use something like
OneClick in Classic will have noticed all sorts of strange things going on
in window layering, so I'm sure that this is very difficult to convert.
However, I'm sure we'll get 'process' back: the Apple menu has items to hide
the front application and back applications. I'm told that Unix has a simple
way of referring to any process, too.
