I tune the list of plugins to only scan for the latest version.  This cleans
up my reports, but it makes maintaining the scan rules a real chore.

Perhaps another way of handling this would be to have the plugin that scans
for version N have something inside it that marks it as superseding plugins
that look for version N-1, N-2,...  A scan option would be to use or not use
this information to turn off the supersceded plugins.

Having suggested this, I have to add that it wouldn't work too well in my
environment.  We have an application used by a few users that requires Java
1.4.  For these users, I don't want to just scan for the latest Java 1.6, I
want to know if they have the lastest in the 1.4 series.
