Bug #61907 for Win32-EventLog: Read event logs for "Application Channels" ?

Hi, We're trying to read event logs with "application" channels as opposed to "global" channels, as documented here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb756956.aspx on Windows 2008. We find the Win32::Event module will only accept source names that correspond to "global" channels and exist in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog, typically just "System", "Security" and "Application". On our system there are many more event logs - see below - which contain events from application channels and which we are unable to read with the Win32::EventLog package. The latter exist in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels. Is there a way and if not, should the package be enhanced ?
