It already exists: It's called “debug” mode and it's what you get when you don't compile it in release mode. (The biggest problem with debug mode is how slow the unoptimized code is: for back-end stuff it doesn't matter, but for things like gamedev you want your dependencies to be compiled in release mode (fortunately the cargo allows you to specify that you want some deps to be compiled in release mode even when your project is compiled in debug mode).
