I probably could have been more specific too.

Not really, it's just the single field so it's kinda hard to have
anything meaningful to say. We obviously need to worry about the
field name, but I'll let Steve speak to that as that likely means more
to him than it does to me. From my perspective, "name" seems
perfectly reasonable, especially since it is in the context of a
module specific record (no real worries about it being ambiguous).

I guess that does bring up the question of the record name, right now
it is AUDIT_MODULE_INIT ... do we want it to be specific to init/load
or do we want it more generic with an "op=" field (you mentioned some
thoughts both ways in the GH issue). I'm not sure I care too much
either way, but once again I imagine Steve may have a preference for
one over the other.
