Do you know about UmitWeb?
It's a graphical front-end like umit and may be your application could be an
extension.

UmitWeb is able to make a scan several levels like Umit.
So if your back-end know what service the host are running could be more
fast to find application services no? :)

Sounds good. Are you talking like GHDB and others vulnerabilities database
right?
