I have a patch from someone else to do logging from a year or so ago too but so
far I didn't do it because it doesn't seem to be in high demand and you can
already log individual panes with pipe-pane/capture-pane as needed. The use
case for automatically logging everything seems a bit thin.
I think I might prefer a history-on-disk thing but I haven't really thought
about it that much.

I have a very experimental patch, just for myself, adding a similar
feature. The implementation is quite easy, for all lines which enter the
history, dump the lines into this file. I also timestamp each line,
remove all formatting (e.g. colors) and each pane goes into a different
file. It makes very easy to grep in these logs for future reference. It
also works as an "infinite scrollback" (see my answer to ticket 112).
The only caveat is that anything what enters the history, you can't pull
it back to the active screen (which currently happens when you resize
your pane to a higher height) but I like tmux better this way. The
reason for this is to avoid duplicate lines in the logs.
If this is something the tmux devs consider as a good idea, I can clean
up my patch to make it palatable.
