There is no way I know of to change the logging. The easiest way to find out about the passed arguments is to set a breakpoint within the function and while the execution is stopped at it investigate the arguments via the *Watch* side panel <https://getfirebug.com/wiki/index.php/Watch_Side_Panel>.
As Firebug 3 will be based on the DevTools, you may also want to follow bug 1164882 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1164882>, which targets to implement the logging of function calls for the DevTools.
