I have a proposition, that would improve bug detection process while writing plugins.

I often have to perform this sequence of actions:
1. Choose an error in 'Error Log' and open it's details
2. Copy 'Exception Stack Trace' to clipboard.
3. Close 'Error Details' dialog
4. Go to 'Console' view
5. Choose 'Java Stack Trace Console'
6. Paste Exception stack trace here

It would be really helpful, if there was a simple action that would do this for me. I think it should be located in the view toolbar and it should show stack trace of currently selected error. For consistency this action should be also present in 'Error Details' dialog.

Czesc Ula! :)

yes this is good idea. It unfortunately missed 3.4, but hopefully will make it's way into Eclipse 3.5.
