I ended up with a patch set that I was happy with which used the list
of string GUCs. I committed it in 9219093cab26. It changes
log_connections to a list of strings for the different aspects of
connection setup and supports the most common inputs for the boolean
version of log_connections for backwards compatibility. I did not end
up deprecating log_disconnections since it is rather late in the cycle
and that change could use more visibility. I suggest proposing that at
the beginning of the next release.

Thanks for your interest in this topic.
