Hm, yeah, a list of integer codes might be even better/simpler.

Okay, next user-interface question- thoughts on handling SIGHUP?  My
first reaction is that we should create a new log file on SIGHUP (if we
don't already, havn't checked), or maybe just on SIGHUP if this variable
changes.

Point being, until we get Andrew's jagged-csv-import magic committed to
core, we won't be able to import a log file that a user has changed the
field list for mid-stream (following the add-a-new-column use-case we've
been discussing).
