I've been investigating whether there's a good way of getting stack traces in FXOS, but for now it looks like we're going to be limited to submitting traces in the following circumstances until the appropriate API lands:

1. Stack traces in WebKit
2. Dependency initialization traces

There's also a chance that we can do some other clever things:

- Wrap exposed methods in commonplace modules with a function to generate rough stack traces
- Wrap jQuery's `on` method with a helper to catch errors happening in fired events (almost all non-startup traces)

Basta thinks Fx27 has an improved API for doing this

You turned this on I believe Jared, is it all documented and live?
