Will,

What I want to do is enable some sort of accounting based on iptables counters 
(I only want to measure traffic to certain destinations, i.e. not count 
inter-vm traffic in a SG zone).
I doubt it's something the events stream can help, but it's a good thing to be 
aware of nonetheless.

Thanks
