Description

How about providing Binding#source_location?

b = binding
p binding.source_location #=> ["test.rb", 1]

To fetch the information, people uses a dirty idiom: eval("[__FILE__, __LINE__]", binding).

I noticed this issue when changing the semantics of eval so that it does not inherit __FILE__ from the binding. [#4352]

I like introspection so I am usually in agreement with all ways
to inspect ruby's behaviour.

I also agree that eval-binding is not pretty.
