Support for user-defined exception information and diagnostic information in std::exception

by Emil Dotchevski

Excerpt:

This document proposes extending std::exception to allow exception-neutral contexts to intercept any std::exception object and store into it arbitrary additional data needed to handle the exception (the propagation of the original exception object can then be resumed by a throw without argument.)
