I always deploy a version compiled with emulated stack traces alongside the
regular version so that if a problem can be replicated, I can get a proper
stack trace.

But I still share your pain. Trying to work out which line of obfuscated
JavaScript could possibly have given a null pointer exception can be quite
tedious.

I'd be (happily) surprised if it's possible to improve stack traces or
error messages without slowing things down.
