You mean the:
  * introduce generic AUGMENT_PID=, AUGMENT_DEVICE= fields
item in the TODO list, right?

A facility that one process can submit information really belonging to
another one, to the journal. In your case the setroubleshoot PID logs
something about the apache service, and if we query the status of
apache we get that setroubleshoot logs along with the logs that
originated from apache, right?

How do we handle the trust here? Allow that "augmentation" only for
privileged processes?
