As walnuss says below, these things are already being worked on. If you tried Julia a few months or couple of years ago, you'll find that stacktraces have already got quite a lot better. One of the things that the Julia community could greatly benefit from is more compiler contributors. Languages like Rust naturally attract compiler folks, and those like Go have the backing of Google. Julia has more complex compiler due to our dynamic type system, which the users absolutely love. But it also puts a lot of strain on the compiler team, which is quite small. So if any folks with experience in compiler technology on HN are looking for interesting projects to contribute to, please do look into Julia. We've done better over the years increasing our bus number on the compiler codebase overall. More contributions in all areas of the toolchain would be great to have!
