it's nice, imho.

And, while we're talking about backtraces, what about
the idea outlined here[1]?

It is basically about adding argument informations to
the backtrace i.e. replacing
 from /foo.rb:18:in `bar'
with
 from /foo.rb:18:in `bar(10, nil)'

I think this would be a really nice help to easily
spot problems, but I don't know how it would impact on
the VM performance.
