I mean that the other way around actually: if I say journalctl /usr/bin/yum-builddep where yum-buildep is a python script, journalctl would look at the file type (looking for a #! line or whatever the way to detect that is), and use _COMM=yum-builddep instead of _EXE=/usr/bin/yum-builddep, because _EXE won't match anything in this context.
