One of the most common complaints about the current implementation of Clojure is that the stack traces are often unreadable. At work we have been using Mark McGranaghan's clj-stacktrace library[1] to print stack traces, and it does a great job of cleaning them up and making it much clearer as to what the actual cause of the problem is. I've found it invaluable for this--it provides indentation, better details, and even coloring to help make the relevant frames stand out in the noise.
I've spoken to him about it, and he is agreeable to the idea of merging it into Clojure. He is the sole author of it, and it sounds like he'd be fine with relicensing and copyright assignment. It appears at first glance to be compatible with the existing clojure.stacktrace library. Obviously before it could be merged we would need to investigate this more thoroughly, but I think it could be a valuable improvement to Clojure 1.3.
