Review Comment:
   does this intentionally shorten the exception? if `NbBrowserException` would 
receive another utility constructor, we could call:
   ```
              throw new NbBrowserException("Error when retrieving path to 
browser.", ex);
   ```
   this would keep track of the original exception and wouldn't require the 
extra log lines?
   
   (applies to many occurrences)
