I found this confusing while I was redoing the the exception handling subsystem. This flag gives an impression that such exceptions (with "compile-like" being true) are handled differently by CIDER, e.g. they don't pop up cider-error buffer and only displayed inline with overlays. That's not true – this flag is not used anywhere in CIDER, cider-nrepl, or Calva. And I don't think it is a good idea to do that either – reflection errors are not compile-time errors and it's misleading to present them so.
To avoid the confusion, I propose to remove this unused flag. Changelog update does not feel necessary since
orchard.stacktrace
is still new.
