It's more work for a very small cosmetic benefit, ISTM. Setting up atomic GUC variables is trivially easy, I'm happy to say. Not that I can't write a simple parser, but why bother for something so tiny?
Also, would we be saying (or implying) that the order given on the line would affect the output? If so, that could make LOTS more work, again for very small benefit, I think.
(Yes, of course this is for 7.5).

I think we need a more general variable that can take several values, separated by commas, like:
log_line: dbname,user
or something like that.
In fact, looking at the postgresql.conf file, I see only two setting that print on every line: log_pid and log_timestamp. Perhaps those two should be merged into log_line.
Of course, this is all for 7.5.
