Yeah, I think the reasoning makes sense, and that seemed to be the
consensus from the discussion on bro-dev in 2011. My point is simply that
with the current behavior, it's not clear (or, AFAICT, documented) that
adding &log to a record is just a shorthand for adding &log to each
attribute, and that it really has no meaning for the record as a whole.
