Hi,
This kind of solution do not exist yet, even if :
1. I understand well the problem as i use also a NAS;
2. Mostly operations done by the scan collection process run in a
separated thread without nothing to do in GUI excepted a progress bar.
So typically it's technically possible but this need to touch a lots
of code to achieve this king of feature.
Sorry, you will need to run the GUI for the moment.
Best
