If we replaced Sed with Cat, I'm a little confused as to what we would be catting; there's a stream coming in, right?
To your second question - yes, logging is fully functional with sudo
To your final question - no, even with a sed command that performs no actions, no logging information is generated.

Hello Apache users list.
We have an issue with mod_log_config; specifically we are trying to pipe log output through Sed before it goes to Cronolog. The result is that we get no output whatsoever.
Here is a sample of the directives we are using in our VirtualHost container:
CustomLog "| /bin/sed s/[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\}\\\.[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\}\\\.[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\}\\\.[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\},\\\ //g | /usr/bin/sudo -u VEsvc /usr/sbin/cronolog --period=1hours /mnt/export/www/logs/beacon/%Y%m%d/%H/survey_log" combined env=survey_log
ErrorLog "| /bin/sed s/[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\}\\\.[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\}\\\.[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\}\\\.[0-9]\\\{1,3\\\},\\\ //g | /usr/bin/sudo -u VEsvc /usr/sbin/cronolog --period=1hours /mnt/export/www/logs/beacon/%Y%m%d/%H/error_log"
We have also experimented with writing a wrapper script that performs all three of the above functions - the result is the same.
Does anyone have any input? Is what we are attempting possible?

whole 'sed' command and just use /bin/cat? Does invoking cronolog with
sudo work when not receiving input piped from another command? Does it
work with a simpler sed script?
