Certainly, I'd pick a language you care about (I'm guessing python), and
take a shot at an implementation for that language. If this proves
useful then these header arguments can be ported to other languages as
there is demand and developer time supply.

Take a look at the ob-python.el. Find where
`org-babel-expand-body:generic' is called, you will want to replace
these calls with `org-babel-expand-body:python' and then write this new
function s.t. it calls `org-babel-expand-body:generic' and does the
optional debug wrapping if the debug param is present.
As you said this should be fairly straightforward. If you do plan to
add this feature please be prepared to write some documentation too. :)
Thanks!
