Is it a big problem if content authors start using these values in their own
error tracking? What would we be stuck with, exactly?

Also, wouldn't it be an improvement if the inspector did make use of these
values?

> I believe sourceId may be used?

Yes, sourceId is used.

Maybe we should remove the non-sourceId properties until we have more clarity
about what we want them to do. (See bug 25767.)

Is there a better way that we should consider?
