As for the user/kernel interface, perhaps exporting the data in a text
format that is "tagged" would be best?  Then the whole world can parse
it easily.

I have been (occasionally) looking at critical kernel messages.
IMO we really need an easy way to find them.
They can begin with any of these strings (and others can be added
too easily):
BUG|panic|MCE|NMI|error:|Oops|Bad|Fatal|Unrecoverable|Unhandled|Weird
We need a simple (single?) tagging method to identify any/all of these,
/methinks.

Simply marking these messages KERN_CRIT or higher would seem to work.
