That's what debug mode is for. Having that much raw data stuffed into
the logs would be one hell of a space hog, especially when you only need
that information when something is wrong and you need to test a specific
case.

You could already do it with the existing functionality anyway, using
log_write and the appropriate ACL hooks. The only command I can think of
without an ACL is RSET, but you could mimic it with some smart thinking
in the MAIL FROM ACL.
