I've done a bit of work to flesh out the jQuery integration in our fork of the airbrake notifier, to automatically wrap all event handlers and AJAX callbacks. Which is great, because it means our entire Backbone app gets a full stack trace with line and column numbers. I should really submit a pull request.
Also very excited about the proposals about having the error object passed to window.onerror... well, I used to be. I've had a little bit of involvement in the W3C mailing lists over the last few years, but it seems like nothing ever gets done.
And source maps support would be awesome! Just as soon as we can get source maps from sprockets, which seems like it's on the way [1].
