"system-process-attributes" function name

[Miles Bader]

I just noticed this new function (from a msg by Thierry Volpiatto), and
wonder -- why the funny prefix "system-"?  It seems both misleading
(a "system process" is typically one that's running as root, and the
question that immediately comes to mind is "how do I get the attributes
of a user process?") and unnecessary.

Why not just call it `process-attributes', and accept either a pid or an
emacs process descriptor?  That would be easy to implement, and would be
both more convenient and easier to find for programmers.

[I haven't looked at the other "system-process" functions, but
a similar comment might apply to them.]
