Nope.
log_destination = 'inserts' #not a new GUC!
insert_columns = '%u,%d,%r,%p, ... %$'
#this new GUC would define a list of comma-seperated columns as escape codes
defined via the same code set as log_line_prefix. The only change would be
the addition of %$, which would symbolize the "statement" being logged.
I'd also assert that this option should log the inserts to a "stderr" and thus
take advantage of all of the redirection, rotation, etc that we now support
for stderr logging.
