Where to put a button or link none

It would be very nice, if the Event Detail dialog of the Event Log had a button or link that could copy the current Exception Stack Trace to the console Java Stack Trace Console...

I suspect that most users would find the level of indirection confusing (i.e. they wouldn't understand why they would want to copy the stack trace to the console). Given that the dialog is non-modal, I wonder if a simpler approach would be to have links appear in the dialog itself.
