Agreed that source code position is not valuable for this.

Maybe the source (library/package) and passed in format string (but
then, this changes over time as well [but certainly equality between a
set of ids can be defined externally (in the knowledge base)])?

Does a reporter has access to some meta-information such as originating
library/package and source code position?
