reading logs with emacspeak

[bart bunting <bart@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

what about a minor mode say we call it emacspeak-log-mode.
it would do the following.
this is just off the top of my head.
take a log buffer.
determine the length of the longest line.
put the buffer in table mode split into columns for the date elements and the message following the date.
thus allowing you to move up and down through the messages without hearing the date.
speak the date asociated with a message on request.
hide all messages of a specific date.
as in hide all messages on same day same hour same etc ....

jump to next day hour min etc.

what do people think?
would something like this be useful?
