  Good day, list!

After doing a scan with "--top-ports 10" I would want to proceed with
another scan to get results for the following 10 ports when ordered by
popularity (i.e. "--top-ports 11-20"). Does this functionality already
exist in some form, or would it be a reasonable addition?

It's a pretty reasonable idea. The ability to do this might not always
save time though. It's likely that --top-ports 1-20 will be faster than
--top-ports 11-20, because the first will probably find ports that it
can use for timing pings.
