I think it could make sense. For example, I compile a certain static library
with `-O3 -flto', without `-g' (it's considered already debugged) and without
`-fno-fat-lto-objects' (so it can be used either with or without LTO); it is
shared between several programs. The programs have their own static libs, which
are compiled with `-g -O1 -flto -fno-fat-lto-objects' (could be `-O0', but
doesn't work, PR55102). Then, they are linked using `-g -O0 -flto' to get a
(partially) debug enabled program, or with `-O3 -flto' for a fully optimized
program.

Yes, but there is an aforementioned bug 55102.
