I don't see any problem with displaying the column values in the LOG
message when the user can access it. Also, we do the same in other
places to further strengthen this idea.

Agreed. We should also consider displaying both the local and remote
rows in case of update/delete_differ conflicts. Do, we have any case
during conflict reporting where we won't have access to any of the
columns? If so, we need to see what to display in such a case.
