I'm not sure what the needinfo was for, but the purpose of this bug is to use a LongStringActor in the console backend for transmitting the exceptionMessage as it can get quite long. You just need to use _createStringGrip for this and you can crib from other uses of this function in the same file:

Nice job! Now we need to write a test to make sure this won't regress in the future. Take a look at test_throw.html and see how it already verifies that the |exception| property is a long string.

You only need to add a similar check for the exceptionMessage property.

Nice, but it can be simplified even more.

You don't need a new evaluateJS request, just to do the extra check in the previous one.
