[hobbit] how can I receive alerts for every new trigger matched for 'LOG'

Sounds a bit like a question I posted two weeks ago: Hobbit responds
on status-changes (green-.yellow->red->etc). You can make it detect
several issues, but when another issue comes up and the status itself
does not change, you will not be notified.
Although the GROUP-keyword for DISK and PROC adds granularity, this is
not possible for LOG (yet?!) and although the GROUP-keyword is very
powerful, the above remains so this does not solve your problem.
