Actually there's a clear TODO in GUC_complaint_elevel's header comment:

/*
 * GUC_complaint_elevel
 *      Get the ereport error level to use in an assign_hook's error report.
 *
 * This should be used by assign hooks that want to emit a custom error
 * report (in addition to the generic "invalid value for option FOO" that
 * guc.c will provide).  Note that the result might be ERROR or a lower
 * level, so the caller must be prepared for control to return from ereport,
 * or not.  If control does return, return false/NULL from the hook function.
 *
 * At some point it'd be nice to replace this with a mechanism that allows
 * the custom message to become the DETAIL line of guc.c's generic message.
