I am generally in favour of keeping the kernel simple, particularly when ptrace is concerned. However, there is one difference in behaviour that annoys me. Right now, if an application itself inserts a trap into it's source code, on intel it will be easy to resume it from debugger simply by continuing. OTOH, on arm, the user will have to manually update the PC first. So I am not sure which is better here...
