Could the DCC requests be logged ? Not sure how many happen for a normal
day if it would be feasible.

DCC is initiated through the server though, it is the initiation process
that either clients or, for some bizarre reason/coincidence/conspiracy
(dropping connections due their content is a pretty BIG BUG), routers drop
the connection. It appears to be server too, Freenode (I don't know about
other servers) carelessly passes DCC and CTCP requests onto the client
without parsing them.
