I think that the case of rethrowing an exception with added detail is
the worst enemy of clean Exception hierarchies.

Hmm. This is a valid point. Sometimes you want to add contextual details
to an exception in order to provide the final catching code with more
useful information. Otherwise you may end up with a chain of mostly
redundant exception classes:

Yah, it does look we need to better investigate the Variant[string] info() primitive.
