digitalmars.D - printing Throwables in druntime
currently the class Throwable has a member toString which basically generates the pretty stacktrace: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/blob/master/src/object_.d#L1337 Now, I tried to override that toString function to get my own Exception-Body, but it just didn't call my overriden toString, so looking at rt/dmain.d where the Exceptions are print: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/blob/master/src/rt/dmain2.d#L530 The Throwable.toString method is never used, but basically reimplemented in these print* functions. What hinders us from replacing: `print(t);` with: `console(t.toString())`? The only difference I can see is the "bypassed" exception-stuff, but I would rather implement that in Throwable.toString. This would also fix my problem of not beeing able to change the body of an Exception.
