Personally, I'm against it, for reasons such as (in no particular order):

1) It's confusing, as is any lack of symmetry. How would you document it? Will 
users remember the nuance?

2) Where available, core files provide meaningful stack trace for non-debug 
binaries as well.

3) Test-cases, if such are planned, would have to differentiate between debug 
vs. non-debug mode. 

Cheers,
