this didn't come up, at least with CEE. but I would strongly suggest tittisee prohibit
fields starting with numbers.

In working with the Simple Event Correlator developers on ways to support
lumberjack style logs in that tool, an interesting question was raised
about legal field names.

Is it legal for a field name to start with a number?

It's very common for languages to have rules about variable names that
prohibit this, and in the case of SEC, it allows for some nice
optimizations.

As far as I know, no currently contemplated field names would violate this
rule.

thoughts?
