Better stacktraces would be better, sure, but there are good arguments on both sides whether it's better to separate the language from the platform or not.
I prefer a thin, readable compiler and core library over such abstractions. I don't mind the stacktraces, but I could see how some people might.
The fact that clojure is host-centric makes clojure and clojurescript compelling to java or javascript programmers at the expense of some aesthetics, and it also has performance implications.
