[Bug 900999] [NEW] Error messages should not appear entirely

 

Public bug reported:

I've also encountered bug #877631 and I'm glad that it has been fixed
already.

My concern is about the way it the error message appears to the user.

On my case, I've opened my laptop in the morning and found the complete
error message standing there in the middle of my screen. I do not think
that we want a basic user to see all this stuff  (see screenshot).

Has it been taken into account when solving this bug ? 
If not, could we show less geeky information, especially if the error is "unknown" ?
