Hi,
  I suggest cruft to decorate its report with extra information on
unexplained/forbiden files. For instance "atime" of files, or (more
sophisticated) the tag <OLD> like popularity-contest does.
It can helps administrator to takes decisions about files he added
a day for a good reason and that are no more used...

Regards

It's an intresting idea. However I think that at least in the current
state of things, this would be better implemented as a separate program
for viewing/filtering the report. This is because cruft is currently
relying on processing data whose format is strictly one line == one
filename, so there is no place for additional metadata.
