Either way I think it would be really cool to have a better logging system. For a while I've really wished there was some sort of faded green checkmark background on items you've obtained before that are like mounts, music, minions, and could be for glamour too if they added a transmog like system.
Aw that's a shame. I know that they have all the features already in-game since how else would the game function? It's basically something like, for each minion; does the player own? If yes, enable icon, if not, disable avatar. It's the same thing they do with BLU spells. So imagine you could see the 400 available pets (or so) and whatever you don't have is grayed out and maybe if they are generous they could add a tooltip on where to find it.

They do this with orchestreons but unfortunately many have different names before crafting it and it gets weird fast. It's not terrible but at least it's a way to keep track.

Due to the glamour mechanics work, we won't ever be able to collect them all like in Guild Wars so we don't need a way to keep track of these. However the Armoire could have this feature for premium items?

Mounts could work like the pets system, grayed out for what isn't obtained yet. I want to point out that there could be a button that toggles this on/off so you don't have to cycle through pages of grayed out mounts on a regular basis.

Quests would be nice, where you could see a list of every quest and where to find it, and a percentage of total quests completed. But, I don't think this will ever happen. Plus, it's kind of fun to look around for quests.

Achievements are already done and good as-is I think.

I'm not sure what else could be tracked, but those are just ideas. At the very least the mounts and minions would be a nice addition!
