When it comes to parsing server logs, it's too bad the functionality can't be extracted out of something like logstash, since that's already basically doing the same thing.

Though I guess the real endgame here is for upstream tools to eventually recognize the value and learn how to directly supply structured output.

You can get that out of journald.

    journalctl -o json

And applications using journald directly can provide their own custom fields.
