there are no major concerns over legacy code breakage and it
gets added in.
I'm pretty sure there is no concerns. We could just add another
overload of the constructor or add an additional default
parameter. If a default parameter is added it needs to be added
last, which would result some somewhat inconsistent order for
the parameters. So I vote for a new overload.
Yes that is my choice as well, just add another overload to
Throwable and Exception. Exception has the default argument set
to __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ which is normally what you'd want to see.
