The major hurdles to this request is the fact that the Bots and Attacks
categorization is handled by two different ExtendedSchemaCreator. This
means that there isn't presently a way to see this information together.

Schema		ExtendedSchema
www 	->	www-robots
	->	www-attack

You can't presently "see" the extra fields added by www-robots and
www-attack together in the same report. Schemas support only single 
inheritance.
