Yes, I mention about preferences in CR. As of now there is one or very few
that need such inputs as "--script-args". But they run with default value
set to to "safe". As we go, may be we need to take care of it through NASL
preferences. There's no standard way of listing these args inside NSE's.
There may be an exercise required to be carried out before adding NSE into
NVT feed.

All going to be reported as security_note() as we can't distinguish the NMAP
output clearly.
