FEATURE REQUEST: Installation loop check #17

Request for new functionality in munki: Installation loop check

Could munki have a mechanism which keeps track of installation counts for the 
same package? Eevery time munki installs something installation log gets a line 
like:
Aug 09 22:35:12 Install of Firefox-US-3.5.8: SUCCESSFUL (install_count:001)

And I guess that if one tries to build a postflight script which tries to check 
if certain packages have been installed many times within a timeframe then date 
formatting in log should be slightly different. I would prefer this formatting:
2010-08-09 22:35:12 YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss

So if you could change the log formatting at least, then it would be easier to 
build a postflight script which looks for installations that may be looping.

Munki is generally stateless. As you acknowledge, you should be able to just 
examine the Installs.log to look for multiple install attempts.
