Kosher for Passover and all year round

In the last year or two, I've noticed (once [livejournal.com profile] aviva_m had pointed it out to me) hechshers reading "Kosher for Passover and all year round". Presumably they are intended for non-Jews buying for food Jews who might otherwise think food labelled "Kosher for Passover" could only be eaten at Passover.

Personally, though, I think they should change the text: in many cases it ought, IMNSHO, to read: "Kosher for Passover; best avoided during the rest of the year."

It is semi-plausible that people might think of KlP as meaning just free of ħametz, rather than implying kosher *and free of ħametz.
