Description

I propose dealing with the MSGID field in syslog messages the same as dealing with the application ID and process ID - extracting it into a separate field if possible, automatically (https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/blob/master/graylog2-inputs/src/main/java/org/graylog2/inputs/codecs/SyslogCodec.java#L164).

Doing this would make searching using message IDs possible. (We put filenames in there, for example.)
