Has anybody been looking at making writing audit rules a bit more DWIM.
E.g. when the user types:
auditctl -a entry,always -S stat
what they almost certainly meant was:
auditctl -a entry,always -F arch=i386 -S oldstat -S oldfstat -S ustat -S
oldlstat -S stat -S lstat -S fstat -S stat64 -S lstat64 -S fstat64
auditctl -a entry,always -F arch=x86_64 -S stat -S fstat -S lstat -S
ustat [1]
It would be really helpful if this kind of knowlege was encapsulated
somewhere. If you were going to put it into auditctl, I suspect you'd
want a separate switch for it so you could still be specific if you
needed it. Is anybody looking at anything like this?

for me :P
