Public bug reported:
Currently when I run top and use key "y" to enable highlighting for
running task, only tasks with status "R" are highlighted. However, as
many modern processes are IO limited instead of CPU limited, it would
make sense to highlight both CPU limited and IO limited processes
because both are logically running as far as the user is interested.
I'm hereby requesting that the "running tasks" highlight should
highlight all processes with status "R" or "D" instead of only "R" like
it currently does.
I don't understand the "I" state to know if it would make sense to
include that, too, as a "running task".
