[Bro-Dev] Scientific notation?

Right now, Bro will print scientific notation in JSON logs but we've 
always tended to avoid it in the standard Bro log format.  What does 
everyone think about switching to allow scientific notation in the 
standard log format?  Daniel recently did some exploration of various 
versions of awk and they all support scientific notation (I think that 
was part of my concern a long time ago).

Thoughts?
