Oops, sorry for the reply latency....
I don't think it's appropriate to separate the security script into
multiple scripts unless the intention is to run ``periodic
security''. This is just my personal view though. If you feel
strongly about it, you should bring it up on freebsd-arch. I'll
certainly back down if the concensus says it should be split.
