I like the idea of configuring the list of variables with using a convention like __trace__, though this requires me to specify what variables cause an exception and that would be hard? May be we could add a loglevel or something; or we keep it simple as it is now but respect __trace__ if it is there. Guido and Ian emphasize stability and I guess they are right. Unicode was one of the problems I had in mind when I implemented this: strings are properly backslash-escaped, using sys.locale. Further, if __repr__ fails, the code uses __type__. Tough, there might be problems when variables have unicode names (what hopefully never happens) or similar.
