Do you have a suggestion about how to map this information into the existing host details XML structure? Would you recommend using the existing detected_at and detected_by entries and add a single host detail to link result IDs?
I'm a bit concerned by the final result, as this would require more processing to extract the final result. If it's fine for GSA, it's not convenient for user-specific toolchains. It's like having the information in the report without really making it easily available... So if we can find a simple and convenient mapping to export the information as host details, then I would agree that this is the best option. Otherwise I think that extending OMP worth it.
