This should  be possible. The audit event dispatcher typically has had a 
plugin that relays audit events to syslog. It will likely be a little while 
before there are binary formatted logs. I guess my message is really that you 
might not want to assume that the site will have text based logs for user 
support. Text logs are not being deprecated. Its that there will be more 
options soon.
