There are "on (event)" configuration parameters.  These have been
used by some folks to register syslog messages on certain events.

In 3.1.0 (still in Alpha), an execute() function was added, which
could be used to run a shell script.

According to recent traffic on the mailing list, there are probably
still a few problems with that approach.

Not that I'm aware of.
