If the factory class can not be found, the exception must be fatal; 
continuing to run without the filter would be a security risk.
ExceptionInInitializerError was the closest I could find.
I'll improve the message;  Oddly, ExceptionInInitializer does not allow both a 
message and initCause().
And the stacktrace for the ClassNotFoundException is not going to be very 
interesting.
