In our applications, we trap the script error dialog and replace the 
default with our own. That dialog lets customers send the 
executionContexts and some other debugging information to us to report 
an error (if one gets by quality/beta testing).

So we get the executionContext that say "error such and such occurred at 
line 342 of some handler". The line number is the line of the whole 
script the handler is in.

When we et the message and log the problem in our instance of Bugzilla, 
one of the 1st things is to look at the script and see what the line of 
code references actually says.

It could reduce a trouble should step to include the line numbers 
programmatically in the error report.

No a huge priority in the scheme of things, but a "nice to have" sort of 
thing. Does that answer the "why?"
