I took a quick google at this, and while it may have been interesting at one
time, I think all the major syslog daemons support the capabilities that this is
aiming for, and do it with several different options.
A large part of the problem is that people think syslog means 1K UDP messages
only, This hasn't been the case for many years (I've been dealing with syslog in
depth, as opposed to just routine use for 6 years, and this wasn't a real
limitation then).
Since linux distros switched to rsyslog as the default syslog daemon about 5
years ago, it hasn't even been true about the default syslog daemon, although
the default configuration of that daemon has retained some of these limitations.
However, as recently as about a year ago when systemd introduced it's takeover
of syslog, people who are introducing "new, better than syslog" solutions seem
to be completely (and in many cases willfully ignorant) of what syslog is able
to do
