Default Riving Knives

I was just reading about Powermatics new table saw, the PM2000. One of
the new features highlighted was a riving knife, a feature that the
predicted would become mandatory in the next ten years. To me it looks
like a splitter only it is attached to the trunnion rather than the
fence. Is there something more to the difference or is the name change
just to differentiate the mounting location?
