Agreed. 

My initial feelings were there is no real use case to query against the Kernel's
`all` table. 

The response from John will dictate if this remains the case, as the suggestion
of using a new flag bit will nullify this issue, I think.

If it stays tho, I will def add details in the commit message around this on next
rev.
