Short answer: no.

Long answer, No because:

1> this will cause massive increases in resource overhead.
2> It requires the ircd to log channel messages, which is illegal in some countries.
3> messages sent to channel prior to the users join is none of the users business.
4> blindly sending users a channel buffer can pose a security risk.
