Thanks for gather's inputs from binutils. I'm curious about how they view this.

Regarding the throughput impact, I was seeing `--trace-all-symbols` slowed down the linker by 2x for a final executable around 60M unfortunately. Since it is a debug switch, I would imagine people whoever use this would be willing to pay for its cost.
