Maybe we could achieve the same goal in a completely different
way? Just thinking out loud but... what about writing w3af's results /
logs / findings to some kind of "on-disk JSON array" as soon as they
are found and have an HTML/JS that will have the format the content
and read the "JSON array"? That way we could write everything to disk
as soon it is found and don't care about crashes, signals, etc.
