For 9.5, yes.  For 9.4, not according to the current plan.

Note also that this is a "new" "experimental" feature.  So far, we've
only included a new feature in a .0 release, so this logging feature
would only appear in 9.7.0.  We're now trying to seek an intermediate
path, considering the tradeoff between the plus of providing useful
features for older versions and the risk of introducing instability to
maintenance release.  So, we may even remove this feature from the final
release of 9.6.1 if we find significant regression with it through
the beta cycle.  On the other hand, we may include it to the next
version of 9.4 if we find it very useful and can be sure that it does
no harm.
