I think you have a point, but perhaps it would be better to wait untill GRUB 2
reaches mainstream before removing debug information.  The average end user
doesn't know how to recompile GRUB, and getting distros to ship a new set of
binaries just for debug information isn't going to be possible.

  still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
