Yes, I know that feeling! I have been using as well the Assert(false) and the upgrade-to-PANIC tricks a couple of times, so being able to get more easily backtraces would be really nice.
Sometime back I'd suggested an idea to be able to dynamically manage log levels for elog messages [1].
Huge +1 from me on being able to selectively manage logging on a module/subsystem, file, or line level.
I don't think I saw the post.
Such a thing would obviously make built in backtrace support much more useful.
