While it may be nice, I don't think it is worth changing the PHP API
for. Error messages have very defined api, which has the place in the
source where they were actually produced.

The place where the error is produced is definitely helpful. Now, it may
not be *all* the information you need, but error messages are simple
things, they are not meant to replace debugger with full backtrace and
stack inspection. I don't think it needs added complications just to
have some library messages look a little nicer.
In any case, one can install custom error handler which would format
messages for user errors differently, if desired.
