The script editor does not report useful error message. For instance, using this jython code, which calls a non-existing method:00

imp = WindowManager.getCurrentImage()
IJ.write(imp.getPloumPloum())

The script editor reports the following trace:

It is very hard to find a clue about what is the error in this text clutter.
If the same code is run within the jython interpreter, we get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
AttributeError: 'ij.ImagePlus' object has no attribute 'getPloumPloum'

which we can use to debug our code.
