Actually, Mark, you've kind of nailed it on the head for me.

I would like to be able to know that the system is the way it's *supposed*
to be instead of just kind of doing my best and hoping that something
didn't break.

I was hoping that the validated modules area would have an XML file or
something that could be downloaded and processed :-|.

Anyway, it seems like it would be an appropriate addition to the SCAP scans
since there is already the requirement to be enabled being checked for
various profiles. I was just hoping that someone had magically created it.

Thanks,

Trevor
