New issue 1914 by [email protected]: Feature Request: Error augmented with fileName, lineNumber
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1914

Can we augment the Error object to include the fileName and lineNumber? I realize this is non-standard behavior per the EMCAScript 5 specification, but it is supported in some browsers (e.g. Firefox).

This is helpful in running eval'd code, for example. A SyntaxError could locate what line number actually caused the SyntaxError.

In embedded V8, it is possible in C++-land to get the fileName and lineNumber. Much better from the user's perspective would be if they are available with the Error object in JavaScript-land.
