A while ago, I hacked something together on top of the current eventlog
parser that would consume an event at a time, and record the seek offset of
each successful parse. If parsing failed (due to unflushed data), it would
try again later. I think I might even claim that this is a somewhat sensible
and parsimonious approach, but I'm drinking wine right now, so my judgment
might be impaired.
