Fyi, the Cloe group at Symbolics would like to see the new DEBUG quality
added.
To cite an actual example, we had a user who was surprised because he
assumed that SAFETY 3 would assure him of full backtrace information in
the debugger. We don't want to make the presence of that info contingent
on high SAFETY. We can imagine low-safety applications where lots of
debugging info is needed, and high-saftey applications where little
debugging info is desired.
