Or any other error-tracking provider even vaguely compatible with Twisted might do something like that?  It would be nice to surface and fix tracebacks that affect our own infrastructure before they hit our users.

Following up on this: Armin Ronacher graciously gifted a Sponsored sentry subscription (happy holidays!) for the Twisted project.  I have sent invites to a couple of other maintainers, but if you would like access, let me know.

Right now, nothing sends tracebacks to Sentry yet, so the first step would be adding some code / deployment secrets to let our various services do that.
