There are 2 reason why I think this would be a good change:

1. The filter parameter logging feels more like a configuration option than code I want cluttering up my application (controller). 2. Different filter parameter logging could be defined based on what environment is being run by declaring config.action\_controller.filter\_parameter\_logging in production.rb/ development.rb/test.rb

Thoughts?
