There are at least two other front-ends to Nessus that alter the
supplied report formats -- NessusPHP and NessusWeb.  Neither seems to
have seen much activity lately but might still meet your needs. 

Also, you might want to look into the NBE format.  For example, with it
you can separate results on a specific plugin that tests for, say, the
latest worm of the week from other less interesting results that might
otherwise be included because of the need to check for dependencies.  Or
you can pull apart results of one scan and generate a single report for
each host.  By the way, since the unix-based nessus client readily
converts NBE output to other formats (eg, HTML, XML, plaintext, etc),
you're not stuck with just NBE output.  [If you're curious, I documented
these tasks as part of a filter I just wrote to convert session data to
NBE; check it out at <http://www.tifaware.com/perl/sd2nbe/>.]
