Forcing scripts to run?

[Ron <ron () skullsecurity net>]

Hey all,

I was helping somebody resolve an issue this morning, and realized there's a feature missing from NSE that maybe ought 
to be there: forcing a script to run against a host and/or port in spite of its hostrule/portrule. 

What happened was, he had a custom HTTP running on a non-standard port. Nmap -sV didn't recognize it as a HTTP server 
(and shouldn't -- it wasn't a standard configuration), so http-headers.nse wouldn't run against it. The only way to do 
it would be to change the service to run on a port that Nmap recognizes as HTTP or to hack the portrule to say "if port 
== 1234 then return true end". Neither of those are great solutions. 

Any ideas how it could work? I imagine this as similar to --version-all, except it would be running every script 
against every host/port.
