Nmap Development: suggestion for nse / script category

["DePriest, Jason R." <jrdepriest () gmail com>]

When I am running nmap inside my corporate network, the scripts that
try to pull data from (such as the RIPE query) don't work.

My Internet access is through a non-transparent proxy server that
requires authentication.

I don't know if there should be a category to specify scripts that
require Internet access or some sort of lookup capability or if there
should be a way to script up some proxy credentials instead.

I have never written anything in LUA so trying to build my own NSE
script to handle this is out of my scope.  I have no idea how
difficult it would be.
