Default packet sniffing

Hi,

Why is it impossible for Apache to inspect incoming packets,
apply rules on them, and thereby filtering unwanted entries in the
access.log en cutting off buglers?

What is so difficult about making rules by witch certain incoming
traffic is allowed, and the rest is directly cutoff?

For example, only certain formatted GET commands are allowed, the rest
is simply cut-off...

I also appreciate serious help in installing that functionality!
