Nice job Justin!  Perhaps this begs the question if we should use this version 
in Bro?  We do have a tendency to make design decisions so that Bro works the 
best that it can with minimal configuration for even the largest sites.

I think the notices are very reasonable and have the additional benefit of 
being a single noticed to watch for for "scanning".  Having to watch for two 
different notices always felt a bit unnatural.  I think that I personally care 
about scans, not the type of scan being performed (although there may be some 
nuance to that that someone is taking advantage of?).
