[syslog-ng]template keyword for non-file destinations

Hi list,

I am attempting to use templated output directly to a program's stdin
instead of relying on a pipe and seperately starting a proxy process to
monitor the pipe. For the curious, I'm using libdbi
(http://libdbi.sourceforge.net) to write a tiny C wrapper that feeds its
standard input into the database. I also saw a similar post at

http://lists.balabit.hu/pipermail/syslog-ng/2002-September/003841.html
"template() and template_escape() extension for all destination drivers"

Is this or a similar patch likely to be included in an upcoming release?

Thanks,
David
