bracketing (begin/end) methods

Has anybody pointed out the logging APIs don't seem to have a notion of method/event bracketing as in:
event = log.begin();
try {
  ...
  event.end();
}
catch (Exception e) {
  event.catch(e);
  ...
}

Without this, I can't analyze the log for unmatched begin/end, run-times, etc. I can't match an exception to an event. Am I missing something? Would anybody else be interested in this feature? Thx. -Ken

Shouldn't you put event.end() inside finally{..} to prevent unmatched 
begin() statements?
