My basic tenet is that I want to catch unexpected exceptions and terminate my app in a way that produces a crash report containing a proper stack trace.

As a developer I understand your desire; but as a user, I would rather have your app pop up an error alert, than suddenly crash and lose my unsaved work. (In my experience, most uncaught exceptions will allow the app to keep limping along afterwards, enough to show an alert and let the user save and quit.)

It wouldn't be too hard to integrate the unexpected-error alert with UKCrashReporter so that it can send the backtrace to you; then you get the best of both worlds.
