Is setting html_errors to false still required?

[beardedlinuxgeek]

I just testing setting it to true and then running

var_dump($result);
\PC::debug($result);
trigger_error("Test Error", E_USER_WARNING);
throw new \Exception("Test Exception");

xdebug prints a correctly formatted var_dump to the screen, and PhpConsole correctly prints the object, error, and exception to the console.
