You can always write custom code that formats messages any way you want for your logs. The TextFormat class is based purely on public interfaces, so you can copy it and modify it. You can define a custom option for flagging fields that you want removed from the logs and use that custom option in your modified TextFormat.
I don't think we want to implement this feature directly in the base implementation. There are too many little feature requests like this, and if we implemented them all the library would get quite bloated.
