Johanna Amann updated BIT-831:
------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Status: Closed (was: Open)
Closing - we will not be able to fix this anytime in the forseeable future because of the current internal architecture. Fixing this would be part of a major rewrite of the scripting functionality of Bro--and we will not forget about it; this is one of the well-known current gotchas of Bro.
