I don't see the conflict. Apache logs can be ordered in whatever way you 
want, but there are defaults or assumptions that people use to write parsers.

But I would assume that parsing a properly delimited line would be easy, just 
a matter of giving the tool a basic field ordering. I thought that was 
typical of all log parsing tools anyway.
