The fact that most users do not have their transcript open mean that a
lot won't even see this.
Could we do something like in VW: instead of popping up a regular
unhandled exception, pop-up a window that contains a number of options:
1- debug (as now)
2- proceed once (so only this once, next occurence will pop-up again)
3- proceed all (no more windows for deprecated methods; Transcript
instead).
Note that, if it is annoying to end-users who do not dare to change it
themselves, they might start complaining on the list, putting peer
pressures on the developers of those packages to fix them :-)
