I’m sorry this is not a full-hearted +1. I kindly ask for a little clarification to know how to continue with that feedback. 
Are these "spurious exceptions” (i) actually problems in code, (ii) just (maybe too verbose) log messages, or is it (iii) a malfunction in the error reporter? In the latter case, it’s my duty to fix them as quickly as possible. Please let me know in this case.

That is true. To some extent this is a valid goal of an error reporter added in the milestones phase. We may start talking about workarounds like [1], but if you think that these errors should not occur or should not be logged as errors, I’d prefer other solutions than that.

Please let me know what you think is (in the long run) the best solution for the platform. I’m happy to fix problems in the error reporter and help providing means to help others fixing issues in Eclipse. 

FWIW, [2] is a list of feature requests we have. Please add whatever you think would make sense and vote for elements you’d like to see faster than others. We use that list to prioritize ourselves.
