No, this rename idea started from a chat during the summit, anyway Julien
promptly add them to the CC, because I forgot.

Yes Hyperlaunch is more than this, however as I said, with this RFC I would like
to ear opinions, @Daniel @Christopher could it be a proper name for the dom0less
feature?

If this patch makes things more difficult for the Hyperlunch serie, I’m ok to 
drop it,
my only aim was just to find a less misleading name for the feature.
