addition to -sV service detection switch

Hello, i just had some ideas to enhance the -sV switch. I will make an example for dns here:On Most DNS-Servers it is possible to get the Version by query the chaos txt version.bind record like this:
cemil@fusie:~$ host -c chaos -t txt version.bind ns1.wavecon.deVersion.bind text "Served by POWERDNS 2.9.15 $Id: packethandler.cc,v 1.22 2004/01/17 13:18:22 ahu Exp $"
Experiences show that this query is in 98% of all cases right (no, this is not a representative value - i just appraise it ;-) )
Same things could be done with HTTP ( query "HEAD / HTTP/1.0" and do some regexp)
After a look at the nmap-service-probes file i saw that it seems not to fit into the existing system... So - what do you think of that? Does it make sence? Or should there be an own switch like "-svV" :)
