AbstractRequestLoggingFilter has options to include the query string and the payload. It would be nice if it also had a standard option to log the request headers.

The rationale here is that sometimes it is helpful or necessary to know what the request headers were in order to troubleshoot an issue.

A workaround is to override the "createMessage" method to append the header information:

@Bean
public Filter logFilter() {
    CommonsRequestLoggingFilter filter = new CommonsRequestLoggingFilter() {
        @Override
        protected String createMessage(HttpServletRequest request, String prefix, String suffix) {
            return super.createMessage(request, prefix, suffix)
                    + ";headers=" + new ServletServerHttpRequest(request).getHeaders();
        }
    };
    return filter;
}

Note though that since the name of the logger that is used is based on the name of the class, the logging configuration has to be set to log the new subclass to DEBUG, not e.g. CommonsRequestLoggingFilter.
