I know of at least one person (in an earlier piece of the thread
discussing this patch) who was talking about other fields they'd like
included in the CSV log which aren't currently. I don't recall what
that was though, but I think it might have been something like line #
from inside stored procedures..

Honestly, I think it was *me* who raised the issue that we don't have a
header for CSV logs and that it sucks for people using CSV files. We've
changed it in the past (application_name was added, iirc) and there
wasn't much noise of it that I recall. If everyone's happy with that,
it's fine by me.
I do want to rework the logging infrastructure (as discussed in the dev
meeting), but I see that whole thing as rather orthogonal to this
change.
Thanks,
Stephen
