Hi Laurence,

At a glance the approach makes sense to me, it would be nice if we could change the FORMAT functions in proced-grammar-alist to take all the process info, which would remove the need for the additional defvar, but I think that would be a breaking change.

The defvar is to preserve compatibility but even with it there can still
be some backward incompatibility if someone is use those format
functions outside of `proced-format'. I think that is highly unlikely
and worth it for the better performance, especially since the only
fallout from such a use will be that `proced-enable-color-flag' will not
be honored so I think it is a safe change.
