Sorry, I hope that others reading my message understood it better. By "this 
problem" I meant the bit just before what you quoted: "data that differs 
depending on the collection method". A few examples would be IDNs collected 
from DNS responses vs. user input, MIME headers that get "fixed" in various 
transports, IP addresses that differ depending on which side of the NAT you 
collect them, and so on.
