That argument pertains to #7524 and to only *half* of #8221 -- the
except (ImportError, AttributeError): raise NoReverseMatch("Error
importing '%s': %s." % (viewname, e)) bits in there. A general
agreement is indeed needed (e.g. what to do with the original
backtrace), but IMHO this should be in scope for 1.0.
The other half is different, although in the same spirit of "try to
provide all available information that helps to solve the problem" --
raise NoReverseMatch("Reverse for '%s' with arguments '%s' and keyword
arguments '%s' not found." % (lookup_view, args, kwargs)). This helped
me to track down an invalid slug that had slipped into an article
database. The article index view was dying with NoReverseMatch and I
had no clue why (everything *looked* OK) -- found it only after
patching my Django checkout with this.
