Thank you Szymon. Regarding abbreviating the exception names: can you open a 
feature request at [1] and post the link here?
We abbreviate exceptions for space reasons and in many cases it works well IMHO 
- or can be learned quickly (as NPE). 
But if a sufficient number of people support this we will reconsider this 
decision (as done before by switching to Mylyn notifications instead of using 
normal dialogs).

Thank you,
Marcel
