The only thing I can think of at this point is perhaps a Utility category
for future scripts that perform some local or support function such as provide
detailed output of the local environment, interactive queries of local xml
output files, script based fingerprint submission in nmap interactive mode,
etc.

I know that these scripts do not exist now but at the rate that new features
are being added to NSE I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few utility type
scripts are written in the near future.

Just my 2 cents.

Tom
