Another idea for FTP reporting.

[Joost van Baal]

Hi Brett,

I'm sorry for this ridiculously late reply.  (This does not mean you're
suggestions are not welcomed, the opposite is true.  Suggestions like
these are very helpful in the Lire development.)

Hmm..  I guess we'd better handle this in a to be defined new login
superservice (which might be used to parse ssh logs also, e.g.).

Currently, we're banging on getting a release out (within some days).  I
added your comments as wishlist bugs to our BUGS list.  They'll very
likely be dealt with in next release, which will ship within one or two
months.

Bye,

Joost
