Could you mock up the stack trace as you would like to see it displayed? I think it would be helpful because what you write here is a common complaint, but it’s also something that seasoned Guilers no longer realize because they’re used to it. So a fresh eye on what it should look like is great. There are also deeper technical issues, such as tail calls, but we can put them aside for now. Thanks, Ludo’.
