---------------------------+----------------------------
Since a couple months, tracebacks are not more shown anymore in case of
crash on startup, and instead is written
in a file. This slows down the workflow when tracking such crashes.
The purpose of this ticket is to make it easy for a sage developer to
customize the behavior of Sage's intepreter in case of crash, and in
particular to specify whether the crash traceback should be shown, and
whether to start pdb. This could be either through new flags (e.g.
--debug) or in a config file in .sage.
The relevant lines are in `src/sage/repl/interpreter.py`, where Sage
implements a customized
crash handler `SageCrashHandler` deriving from `IPAppCrashHandler`,
setting by default `show_crash_traceback=False` and `call_pdb=False`.
