Following up to that: the config given in the first link looks like it
should actually do the trick. It reads as if the missing parsing should
take place.

But as that config broke my remote syslog, I didn't tinker with it any
further. It might be that there's a separate problem in my remote
logging configuration, but I don't really see myself exploring that
posiibility further at the moment, given that I lack a safe testing
environment.

No. And I really wouldn't expect it to be working, given the
"flexible schema" nature of mongodb.

Tempting, but as I was merely toying with that, and in the light of a
lack of spare time due to dayjob and family, I'm afraid there won't be
much I'd manage to do.
