Why exactly is this an open item? Is there anything wrong with the

The name of the GUC backtrace_on_internal_error is so specific that
it's impossible to extend our backtrace behaviour in future releases
without adding yet another backtrace GUC. You started the discussion
on renaming it upthread:
This presupposes that there is consensus about how the future
functionality should look like. This topic has gone through half a
dozen designs over a few months, and I think it would be premature to
randomly freeze that discussion now and backport that design.
If a better, more comprehensive design arises for PG18, I think it would
be pretty easy to either remove backtrace_on_internal_error or just
internally remap it.
