I'm a bit tired so probably am pushing to hard.

At the same time I don't see a single reason not to use
struct pid for what it was designed for.  Identifying tasks.
pid_t's really only belong at the border.

I can see in the tracer when grabbing numbers you might
not be able to follow pointers.  For that I see justification
for using task->pid.  For the comparison I just don't see it.
