I don't think turning all debugging on by default is a good idea...

The kernel is special, but not everywhere else...

It would be far better to use David's suggestion from [1], if that
works. If someone (like \me) does not want to slow down the computer, he
can simply not use the debugging package. If I ran into problems,
turning on the debugging and slowing down is an option.

I use the α's of Fedora already daily without any other older Fedora
version around me, so if debugging would be on by default, this would
force me to not help testing newer versions in favor of not getting
slowed down...
