[syslog-ng] feature request: Priority remap

[Evan Rempel]

It would be nice to be able to use syslong-ng as a filter from the syslog 
sources to a final syslog server, but in doing so, change the priority of a 
message based on some filter expressions.

As an example, I have an application that does not support syslog. It can log 
all of its messages to its standard out, so it is easy to use

application | logger -p user.info -t application

but this assigns the same priority to all messages.

I would like to run this through a syslong-ng server to
match expressions for -t application and then regular expressions and send them 
on to the production syslog server with level of error, critical, warning, info 
and debug.

An option for a TCP/UDP destination that would set the facility/level of 
the messages would be nice.

Thanks,
