So no, no problem at all. In fact, I'd be very happy if functionality 
like this made it in.

If possible, I'd like my name to be kept in the file as the (original) 
author though.

Please note there's a comment in the class about what you need to do to 
keep the "excluding initial stackframes from this module" working if you 
change the module name.
(There's a hard-coded string constant that's the first part of any 
mangled name in the module, used to ignore the frames from that module)
