If we want a full log with timestamps etc. I'm fine with providing a disabled service which does that. This could be enabled using the standard "systemctl enable udev-monitor", or also via the kernel command line if "debug" is given. But I am really resistant about writing this extra log file all the time without a good reason.

There is no equivalent systemd unit for this job, so with the move to systemd, we now lose this useful debugging information. I'm not aware of any other way under systemd to get a replay of the boot-time kernel events. If there is one, that's fine, but otherwise there should be a systemd unit equivalent here that can give us this log.
