Im trying to implement a simple grok pattern based on the standard grok 
patterns from the logstash repo, but I get all sorts of extra fields in my 
messages. At first i was confused, but then I figured out it was the 
normally discarded sub-patterns.

For example I have a grok pattern like this:

%{USER:Proto}

which uses a pattern called USER and then finally USERNAME like this:

USER%{USERNAME}

USERNAME [a-zA-Z0-9_-]+
So in my messages I have the Proto field, and the USER field. Normally if a 
grok pattern doesnt have a name, it gets discarded, but in Graylog 1.0.0 it 
gets the default name of the field instead. This quickly adds up ALOT of 
irrelevant fields when using alot of sub-patterns. It doesnt really break 
anything, but it clutters the field list with redundant and confusing 
fields.

Any work-arounds?

Will this be fixed? should I create a ticket?

Brgds.
Martin
