Thanks again for the comments!

Unless I have any complaints from anyone on the mailing list, I will change
the skiplist option to noskip, and use it by default when invoking GRAB with
the --auto, --sysupdate, or --cron options.

Just released a new version last night, so any work described here will be in
the next version.

Thanks again,
Greg
