Well...

* Automatically add filename, line, function name: Easy to code, lots of
labour. Should be lumped in with some other large change.

* Error codes: I think there are only a handful of key messages that
users (programs) need to detect cleanly, mostly constraint violations.
The rest are "the query you sent is wrong -- fix your application" and
"something went really wrong -- manual repair needed"

So maybe this could be a smallish change.

* Translation: If we want to use gettext I can get started. I don't
think I'm interested in using any other interface.
