In addition to deleting simply by age, it would be nice to delete "outdated"
entries. For example, I'm querying the audit log for "attestation"
information (i.e. "who was responsible for assigning or removing a particular
group membership"). It would be good to always keep the most recent row for
certain types of audit actions (such as addMember), even if that row is very
old. When cleanup is introduced, it would be nice if it could be flexible
enough to achieve this goal. Thanks!
