 Something like this was my initial thinking too, but it looks like a
 separate function might be more straightforward to use in the long run,
 and would also allow for differentiating between core, plugin, and theme
 development.

 This looks good to me :) Should we also check for an environment variable
 if set, or would the constant and the filter be enough for now?
