While this is helpful, this does not seem to quite fit:
1. As this is about personal sensitive data (including conceivably authentication information), the fact that the default is to log seems problematic.
2. The TERSE setting also disables HINT, QUERY and CONTEXT.
3. There may be other information sent in the DETAIL messages which does not contain sensitive data. There's no reason to have that disabled along with the sensitive data.
In other words, this isn't about verbosity, but about sensitive data. It seems like a specific knob for sensitive information may be required, which would be off by default and would potentially affect other fields as well (if relevant).
