To implement the feature I created a new NSE library: pwdprofile. It
provides a method for the NSE scripts to pass any keywords to the
library (using NSE registry), mangling algorithms, as well as methods
for adding the generated wordlist to the passwords iterator used by
the brute force engine.

Nice work. But where does this leave Ncrack [1]?
Seems your work and the LUA-interface in Nmap is better suited
for password cracking than Ncrack is. At the moment anyway.
