This is why we had a logger running in the background that received all anomalous events from warnings to exceptions (the class, method and passed data including passed parameters and the relevant line). And we had a catch-all trigger for when something goes really, really, really, badly wrong and there's nothing else available to dump to the logger.

Annoying during development, a godsend in production. No one is immune from stupid mistakes.

Yes, indeed, we have the same, but it becomes much more useful if the exceptions being thrown by your dependencies are of high quality.
