I agree. It would be far more sensible to use separate tables. One for
service checks, one for host checks, one for notifications, (etc, etc).
I imagine the current structure was designed to facilitate displaying
the entire log though. Your guess is as good as mine, as it was a long
time ago I took a look at the ndoutils code.

If you're going to write your own parser anyway, you might as well
re-use the import program from the reports-module project. It should
provide a nice starting point, and the hooks used by the module gets
exercised as inserters so you know both ends work nicely.
