Improve the notification system
The way that chkboot handles the notification of changed files has lots of room for improvement. More specifically, desktop integration. Also, the use of inotify could be integrated to proactively warn about changes, at the time they happen, and ask for user interaction.
One should probably start by writing a .dektop file to utilize the existing autostart mechanisms.
Something similar to this should be sufficient
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=/usr/bin/chkboot-desktopalert
Name=chkboot-desktopalert
Comment=Desktop notification for chkboot
but to get really fancy one might even think about adding icons.
