If you're using psql, "\set VERBOSITY verbose" would presumably show you
the extra fields, or we could invent a new setting that adds just these
fields. Likewise you can get it in the server log if you need it. I'm
not a fan of cramming more stuff into primary message texts on the
theory that that's the only useful field.
