It would be a nice feature to be able to complete the XML output file upon a scan that is manually canceled. Related it would be nice to have the --resume option be compatible with XML output.

#316 adds the resume feature, but does not do the XML finalization or appending.

While I was concerned with #64 I thought if it would be possible to use the partial output on host timeouts as well for manually canceled scans?

Maybe it would be possible (by key press or signal) to flag all current/resuming hosts as timed out or dynamically introducing a host-timeout option with a very short time during runtime. This should cause nmap to finish the scan in a reasonably amount of time and to output any partial data.
