Is this how it is going to be?

no, its independent of report_paranoia.
A NVT can always decide to report 99 when the test it must
do shows no vulnerability. It is up to the manager do help
user judge about the worth of this information.
It is also in conjunction with the test type.

We comitted this for a number of NVTs. It has no effect
for OpenVAS users but we can experiment now with the results
to elaborate the best use cases.

Best
