I didn't say elegant catches, I meant elegant handling of thrown exceptions.
I disagree with you on the stack traces. They are evil. If you can handle an exception and can fix the problem, then do so at all costs. Stack traces are only useful if you're debugging.

Definately stack traces are only good for debugging, I always leave them in when the code goes to production as if there ever is an error that wasn't accounted for then you know where to look. Only way to do this properly is to use a good logger and log all the exceptions properly. Log4j is pretty good for this kind of stuff.
