New HTTP Logger Grails plugin

I've wrote a new Grails plugin - httplogger. It logs:

• request information (url, headers, cookies, method, body),
• grails dispatch information (controller, action, parameters),
• response information (elapsed time and body).

It is mostly useful for logging your REST traffic. Full HTTP web pages can be huge to log and generally waste your space. I suggest to map all of your REST controllers with the same path in UrlMappings, e.g. /rest/ and configure this plugin with this path.

Here is some simple output just to give you a taste of it.
