Shouldn't it just say "all means all", if we think that needs to be
explained?

I think it should say something about the "all" option. I read &
re-read that section trying to figure out what the difference between
"mod" and "all" was, and finally asked on the irc channel. As it
stands, it essentially says "there are three options to this command,
but we're only going to tell you about two of them." :)
Thanks!

Well, if you take a look at utility.c:GetCommandLogLevel() you will see
that ALL includes a lot more commands than just SELECT.

Yeah. My objection was not to documenting ALL, it was to documenting it
with exactly that sentence, which seems both needlessly complicated and
subject to errors of omission.

I have applied the following patch with adds "off" and "all statements"
identifiers. This is probaby the right level of detail for this.
