Yes, it would be good to have a better error reporting mechanism in many of these cases and excise these uses of report_fatal_error - but AFAIK the infrastructure just isn't there for many of these to report a proper error with context (corrections welcome!). I think we're in agreement this patch isn't fundamentally improving the situation, just making some minor incremental improvements on what we have today.
