SubjectRe: Question on syslogd and syslog
you would be creating a completely different over-the-wire protocol for 
your syslog messages.

however, note that newer syslog daemons (syslog-ng and rsyslog for
example) allow you to do filtering on just about anything in the message,
not just the facility and severity.
