Nmap Development: Extention to Fingerprint File

I would like an alternate discription line in the <nmap-os-fingerprints>
file.
This alternate line would appear in the XML output.
Example:
----nmap-os-fingerprint---------------
...
Fingerprint AXIS NetEye Camera Server V1.20 # Thanks to Pluvius
XML type="camera"
TSeq(Class=C)
...
# Thanks to Jan B. Koum (Cisco 2516,7500,7505)
Fingerprint Cisco IOS 11.3 - 12.0(11)" type="switch router"
XML type="switch router" layer="2"
...
---output--------------
...
<osmatch name="Axis 200+ Web Camera running OS v1.42"
  type="camera"
  accuracy="100"/>
...
<osmatch name="Cisco IOS 11.3 - 12.0(11)"
   type="switch router"
  layer="2"
  accuracy="100"/>
...
-----------------

Clearly, I can get this behavior now by modifying the
<nmap-os-fingerprints> file.
Example:
----nmap-os-fingerprint---------------
...
Fingerprint AXIS NetEye Camera Server V1.20 # Thanks to Pluvius"
type="camera
...
---------------------------
Two problems with that:
- It is ugly
- It would screw up non-XML output

If nobody has a problem with this change I will hack
the source and submit the patch.
Are there any other fields that could/should be included in the XML line?
I will modify the draft XSchema accordingly.

Thanks.
