As Joe mentioned, we're certainly open to expanding to UTF-8.  To your (valid) 
point regarding YANG, would the group prefer to see the trace log syntax 
expressed in YANG instead of ABNF? We stuck with BNF-based out of sheer habit. 
If we did this, for the sake of consistency, would we also want the syntax 
updated (RBNF->YANG) in Nitin's RIB IM draft as well?
