I'm not violently opposed to it but I would really love to see how you
pull it off. I'd rather have something that could show the XML output
in a usable format so you could visually get a list of all hosts with
Web servers and SMB. Sure I do this today with grep or a
webserver/backend process but something in wx-python would be cooler.

I'm tired of web apps for everything. When I'm just me doing a test I
don't need/want to process all this data into a database, run a
webserver and use a browser. It's slow.

Anyway, that's my opinion. A wx-based nmap xml processor/visualizer
would be hella useful.
