Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd use this if the error messages were more useable. When I select "install all packages" and an error occurs, there is a small popup int he lower left corner of PyCharm. However, the error is like 100 lines long with a stack trace. The message ballon is completely unusable for determining what the problem is. Even after copying the text into a scratch file, it is all strung out on a single line which is difficult to read 100 lines of a stack trace to find the problem.

Describe the solution you'd like
One possible solution would be to open a dialog window with the error message. It should be formatted in multiple lines and scrollable.

Describe alternatives you've considered
At the moment, the error messages as they are displayed are completely unuseable, so I had to uninstall this plugin.
