Changes (by kallisti5):

 * keywords:   => qr-code


Comment:

 This isn't a horrible idea... however:

 Pros:
  * Simple, better then screen shots of backtrace text
  * Most people have smartphones which can read qr codes.

 Cons:
  * QR code is too small.. to store an entire backtrace would require
 several *huge* QR codes. (try to generate a qr-code with a backtrace, it
 just doesn't go well)
  * We don't want to just blast qr codes on screen... by that time a
 backtrace would be more useful when no keyboard is available.
