Which preprocessor?  The only ones that only call alerts are things
like portscans to my knowledge.

We could log the packet as well, it doesn't make a lot of sense out of
context but it is doable.

Yupp. Portscan is the one.. Don't run SPADE and don't see so much stream4 
activity anyway so I wouldn't know.

Is there any way to get tagged packets to have a signature name like 'tagged 
packet' or something?

I don't know about the database output plugin.   They are meant to be
logged based off the event id that triggered them.  


PS:
 I've hacked the sourcecode of spo_database.c so it ignores the BFP part. It's 
an easy hack but if anyone wants a diff file please let me know.

Make it a option in the output line and I'll include it.

This is my signature. There are many like it but this one is mine.
