I agree about the capitalization thing, one solution would be to use
the nmap style of output arguments -oN -oX

The advantage being that our target demographic is already familiar
with these options. This also fixes the issue of people not knowing
what YAML is, YAML can now become 'normal'.

Most people wont want xml output in their terminal anyways.

Cheers,
Michael
