+I think we should implement fetching all of the system processes, at
+least on Linux this could be done with /proc, not sure what to do on
+other OSes.
+
+The reason is that currently GetProcesses is limited because one
+feature might not be supported (waiting on other processes), but there
+are a lot of other useful cases that are not necessarily waiting for a
+process.   
+
+We should just document that non-Mono processes can not be waited on
+in Linux.
