Review comment:
Logging an exception in this way will produce a stacktrace in the logs. This
is good, but should only be done at the debug level. The is the origin for the
pattern you see above:
https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client/blob/b3f3b18f0bbd063b4f9ce8ce50329ac3f1e47148/extensions/guacamole-auth-ldap/src/main/java/org/apache/guacamole/auth/ldap/ObjectQueryService.java#L220-L221
The idea is to not confront users/administrators with stacktraces unless
they truly are interested in debugging information.
