If I can write two scripts of that type pretty easily when the time comes -- DHCP and NetBIOS. Can anybody suggest 
other broadcast protocols? 



IGMP is a "broadcasting" (actually multicasting as you all know)  protocol
for which a NSE script might be handy. I think there has previously been no
attempt to implement IGMP-related attacks and there are quite a few
possibilities here. The easiest part would be to forge some IGMP query
packets to elicit IGMP group information from a router or a host. This can
be done by sending a General Query packet to the all-hosts group (224.0.0.1).
Most probably, this script will be useful on local area networks, though it
could possibly be extended in the future for more advanced techniques.
