Having a generalized URL parser type of filter (that can return the discrete 
elements within a standard URL) would more than likely take it much closer to 
the goal line for this particular case.  I'm not sure if that'd would or would 
not be terribly useful to the community as a whole, I do have a pretty solid 
working solution and will be moving to the point where even *I* don't need the 
url parsing down the road, but if you think it'd be a good general purpose 
addition then yeah… I can definitely say I'd be willing to test it, poke and 
prod it with a stick, etc.  I could definitely use it *right now* anyway.

At this point my limiting factor isn't anything in rsylsog proper, it's 
actually the redis output plugin which doesn't handle the really high traffic I 
need to put through it (or the transactional support).  I've got solutions in 
place to solve all my other problems but if solving those problems involves 
beefing up stuff in rsyslog and you need a good test case I'm willing to roll 
up my sleeves and volunteer.
