as long at it is NASL it should keep the name.
However, at the time it gets incompatible, we need another
name not at least to avoid any confusion with the official
NASL the belong to Nessus.

This is something really important IMHO.
I envision a converter from OVAL to NASL that
at least does quite some preparation so the
developer gets a well prepared stub to concentrate
on the actual test to write.
Maybe in some cases even a 100% automatic script
generation is possible.
