Description

Current stack trace printout in my opinion is not ideal for all use cases..

For example it would be nice to have package information (jar/version), so that when people report an issue and provide a stack trace you also know the precise library info/versions which is very valuable...

Another use case would be if one would want to use a json representation...

Here would be an example of stack trace printed with https://github.com/zolyfarkas/spf4j/blob/master/spf4j-core/src/main/java/org/spf4j/base/Throwables.java#L519 :
