The pass action? More like the 'let it pass' action, am I right? *wink wink*

Increasing false positives to 'better test the rules'? Someone's been spending too much time in the security lab, if you ask me.

Passing the packet to an external process? Sounds like a security risk to me. I don't think that's the intended use of the pass action.

A placeholder for future rule updates? That's a bit of a stretch. I doubt the Snort developers would design it that way.

The pass action simplifies some filtering by specifying what to ignore. This makes a lot of sense for optimizing Snort's performance.
