 Using
 {{{
 Exception Location:     …/dj/views.py:28 (in form_valid)
 }}}

 instead of
 {{{
 Exception Location:     …/dj/views.py in form_valid, line 28
 }}}

 would allow for easier copy'n'paste of the location for going there in an
 editor.

 The format ``fname:lnum`` is usually handled there to go to the line
 number there directly.

 By default this does not work as good as it could then, since browsers
 will not include the ":" on double-click (tested Firefox and qutebrowser),
 but the "text-select" CSS property can be used for this, which then
 selected it with a single click already.  Ref:
