> We need a parameter annotation which allows log methods to pass additional parameters to the constructor of exceptions.  Something like {{@Param}}.  It would exclude that parameter from the list and instead apply those values to non-cause, non-message parameters of the constructor.
> For the purposes of resolution, assume the message parameter is the left-most String and the cause parameter is the left-most Throwable or subtype thereof.
> Parameters should be order-matched first, then type-matched to resolve ambiguity, throwing an exception if there is no unambiguous solution.  The {{@Param}} annotation should allow an optional class name to be specified which would have to match the exact type of the parameter in question, to enable unambiguous resolution in this case.
