Currently, no there is not that capability, though only the first 255
bytes of the request are logged to the database. So it will not waste an
excess amount of space in the database.

I'm trying to put as little logic in the module itself and off load that
to the database to do the logic for an end-user app that will query the
database.

I have added this in as a feature request on the issue tracker

http://issues.outoforder.cc/view.php?id=31

I may add this in when I redo the way the TransferLogFormat
configuration parameter is done as the current method is very limited in
functionality.
