That doesn't make sense.  What if you're trying to solve a problem,
suspecting a particular service, and the problem is somewhere else?
You'd never see the relevant messages because they remain hidden.

You'd have to browse all messages, and an ordinary logfile is perfectly
suited for that.  What's the advantage of using an unreadable format and
added complexity supposed to be?
