Have there been any attempts to explore this area further?

"THC-RUT comes with a OS host Fingerprinter which determines the remote
 OS by open/closed port characteristics, banner matching and nmap
 fingerprinting techniques (T1, tcpoptions)."

"Amap is a next-generation scanning tool, it identifies applications
 and services even if they are not listening on the default port by
 creating a bogus-communication."
