Looks fine to me.

Feature additions usually require *some* justification,
and you've just provided it: "for debugging".  Please mention
that in the ChangeLog, too.

In general, you'll get more from me as a reviewer if you say
more in the change description or comments.  The less I have
to guess about the intent of a change, the better I can cross-check.

  \ No newline at end of file

I know many other .sexpr files lack the final (sole) newline,
but new ones should all have it.
