Yes - I just didn't want to define everything until we had a basic framework 
that was agreed upon.  We can add support for other traps through separate 
patches.  For notices, I did not 'unpack' the data detail section, since that 
involves decoding the notice itself, and creates a mess of ib_field definitions. 
  I choose instead to leave this up to the consumer.  So, I defined traps that I 
thought were most useful, plus enough to show how additional traps could be defined.

I've removed these definitions from my git tree.
