I'll consider it.
I guess it would let you implement a kind of C assert() statement.
e.g.
          assert(x < 100)
where you print a message with the offending file and line number
when the assert fails. Of course,

procedure assert(integer x)
    if not x then
        ? 1/0
    end if
end procedure

would be almost as good.
