It's not very outdated, we still display exceptions as is. Unfortunately, we do not have the list, but frequent ones we may want to cover are: 1. Syntax error (we handle this, but could display it nicer maybe) 2. Missing prefix (kind of variant of syntax error but a bit different, maybe we can handle it nicer) 3. Query timeout (we don't handle it at all, it looks kind of scary now) So my idea currently is maybe if we recognize error we know, display short info about it in the same place we had "Running query" bar. We still can leave the full exception for debugging purposes but at least casual user would know what's going on. If it's exception we do not know, we can display something like "query failed, this may be a bug, please tell us about it at [[link]]". This way we also get to improve our exception coverage as people would complain to us about exceptions we didn't cover.
