[Lazarus] Is there a setting to include debug symbols when starting from Lazarus only?

Las 2.2.6/Fpc 3.2.2

I use the config item:
Project/ProjectOptions/CompilerOptions/Debugging/GenerateInfoForTheDebugger
in order to include symbols or not in the executable.

Now I wonder if there is some way to configure this such that it works like
this:

- Use Run menu Build or Compile: no symbols should be included.
- Click the green run arrow button then the symbols will be included.

I know there is a button next to the green arrow that has a little red x and the
hint: "Run without debugging"
But I think this is just for the execution of the program without the debugger,
right?

Or is this working such that both green arrows will add the debug info but only
the one without the x will actually *use* the debugger?

I would like to be able to build the release without symbols from the Run menu
but still use the green arrow to debug without having to change the setting
above.

Is this possible?
