    @cestella I initially tried to include the whole stack trace in the 
response but I couldn't find a good way to format it.  Multi-line statements 
just don't work well in JSON so I settled on the root cause because it's 
usually the most important piece of information anyways.  The whole stack trace 
is logged, just not returned in the JSON response.  Any ideas on how to do this 
better?
