Writing additional "session" information without explicitly asking for user consent often leads to threatening user's privacy.
This is one of the main reasons for fair analytics to exist.

I think you're missing the point. People are going to add-on the missing features anyway.
Considering the raw logs are timestamped and public, that then sounds like a rather large privacy hole for the users.
I would imagine some kind of pre-aggregation happening, and then making available aggregated data instead of raw logs.
