Time to rename Stackless? (Re: Stackless Platform Independence?)

Seems to me that "Stackless" is a misnomer now. If it
works by switching between multiple stacks, then it now
uses *more* stacks than normal Python!

Maybe something like "Microthreaded Python" or
"Multitasking Python" would be better?
