kthreads, kprocs?

Hi,

I've seen the cvs notice about kthread renaming to kprocs, and I wonder
why - what's the need for "proper" kthreads and how will it be different
from current implementation of kprocs? Will it mimic userland to form a
"hierarchy": processes have threads? Why, since all the kernel is a
single context wrt memory protection?
