Comment:

 Hey, I love this idea!  And the code seems fine on the face of it.

 But probably it makes the most sense to make it separately available as a
 simplification, i.e. make a new method .simplify_log() or something.
 Exposing as many of these as possible is good for the (many) users who
 keep one wanting some, but not all simplifications, which I think is
 something people really like about Maxima (from reading their lists).

 Anyway, then you could just call this wherever you think is best in the
 definition of .simplify_full(), which certainly should have this included.
 And one would want a (perhaps slightly complicated) example added to
 simplify_full() which shows that it's used correctly there as well.
