I agree with David on this one.  In addition to the arguments already stated, the string value of an exception is not part of specification.  The exception is still TypeError even if the message may be confusing.  I also find that once read in the context of the backtrace, the error is clear enough.

I am changing this to an RFE for now, but I think this should be closed as "won't fix".
