I don't exactly like this. The audit event records are very normalized. When 
you have a specific kind of record, you can count on always having the certain 
fields even if its value is (NULL). So, having fields swinging in and out by 
configuration is not something I'd like to see start.

Can you show me an event that has the problem and what it looks like when its 
fixed by this patch?

Thanks,
-Steve
