What would be the best way of controlling this feature in your opinion (bearing in mind that GCC doesn't emit it, and GDB and LLDB don't the DIE)?
@pogo59 Hmm - I thought you held a strong preference that debugger tuning never be the only way to access a certain feature, and that we should always have direct control of these features via flags (but with default (or explicit) debugger tuning setting some of these flag defaults based on the preferred content for that debugger). Perhaps i'm misremembering?
