I think your proposal sounds reasonable.  I’d go ahead and implement it and see 
what you think about overload situations since I can easily see the amount of 
software being tracked quickly get out of hand with that.  After it’s 
implemented, get it running on several networks that are willing to run it and 
see if it causes problems for them. :)

This could be a good time to also implement some better handling around 
software tracking to avoid obvious DoS issues by doing traffic that causes lots 
of state being tracked.
