Maybe it's stupid: Is it possible to let the Lisp debugger register some variable so that once the Lisp interpreter see debugger has finished and 'max-specpdl-size' is different from what user set it will set 'max- specpdl-size' back, to keep the consistency of other applications of the term 'max'? (I think 'max' in other applications, at least in most other applications, is inherent.)
