Scratch that. Just now I was able to see the following error in Emacs
without any shell buffer, while copying in Chome:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)
  dbus-handle-event((dbus-event (if above 1 2)))
  funcall-interactively(dbus-handle-event (dbus-event (if above 1 2)))
  command-execute(dbus-handle-event nil [(dbus-event (if above 1 2))] t)
