Once it has parsed the query, I could print it, the simplest way:
Jun 15 10:03:05 unbound[25547:0] info: ::1 <www.nlnetlabs.nl. A IN>
Jun 15 10:03:10 unbound[25547:0] info: ::1 <www.nlnetlabs.com. A IN>
Jun 15 10:03:12 unbound[25547:0] info: ::1 <www.nlnetlabs.com. MX IN>

Here I perform a couple of queries from ::1.

But it is very simple:
It would be printed for cache response and for non-cache-response.
It would not do escaping, weird characters become '?' (not \123).
It is logged to the regular log channel. (at LOG_INFO level).
I can change the format a little, remove the <>

Patch that does this is:
- --- daemon/worker.c     (revision 2428)
+++ daemon/worker.c     (working copy)
@@ -775,6 +775,11 @@
                server_stats_insrcode(&worker->stats, c->buffer);
                return 1;
        }
+       if(1) {
+               char ip[128];
+               addr_to_str(&repinfo->addr, repinfo->addrlen, ip,
sizeof(ip));
+               log_nametypeclass(0, ip, qinfo.qname, qinfo.qtype,
qinfo.qclass);
+       }
        if(qinfo.qtype == LDNS_RR_TYPE_AXFR ||
                qinfo.qtype == LDNS_RR_TYPE_IXFR) {
                verbose(VERB_ALGO, "worker request: refused zone
transfer.");

So, most of the work would be for the option to turn it on and off, and
the cost is again, the if statement that tests for this option.  This
would be an if statement that is tested for every query, hence slowing
down when it is not turned on.  Not sure if this is worth it.

Best regards,
   Wouter
