What about columns like:
* action B|I|U|D|C
* xid
* timestamp
* tablename
* key name
* key column names
* key column types
* new key column values
* column names
* column types
* column values
* candidate_key_changed?
* old key column values
And have output plugin options
* include-column-types
* include-column-names
* include-primary-key
If something isn't included it's simply left out.
What still need to be determined is:
* how do we separate and escape multiple values in one CSV column
* how do we represent NULLs
