I think it is a good idea to avoid exception wrapping where ever possible,
so +1 to that.
I was wondering if we can improve exception handling even further for the
state abstraction, especially getting rid of the `throws Exception` in all the
methods on the state interfaces (like `ValueState.get()`).
Can we find some more "specific" exceptions for the signature, like `throws
IOException` or `throws StateAccessException`. That would mean that some
exceptions would have to be wrapped, though.
I think Java would support exception "downgrading", meaning going to more
specific exceptions, without breaking the API.
What do you think?
