Is this intended to improve upon bulk imports in the future?

They might be moving it into Lua? There are no references to the function in my client tracker presently so I can only speculate. Could also be for some BuiltInPlugin prompting a bulk import.

It’s weird that the ScriptContext.ErrorDetailed Event is listed as RobloxScriptSecurity. Having stack traces for errors would be amazing for multiple reasons. Currently you’d need to handle errors messages yourself and add debug.stacktrace() to your error handler when your code errors and that’s how you’d report errors with a stack trace. Currently LogService.MessageOut has no built-in ability to create or retrieve stack traces for errors and only contains two arguments so assuming the event was added for stack trace reporting I’m not sure why this wasn’t added to the existing developer accessible event.

You could always make a feature request.

That’s true, I just find it interesting that it has the tag it does. My assumption at this point is just so that core scripts won’t rely on public features meaning Roblox can update, change, etc the event or even remove it if it isn’t used anymore.

ScriptContext.Error has what you’re looking for. ErrorDetailed is supposedly the same thing, but with a details parameter that contains who knows what.
