> factType.get(instance, "unknownField") is currently throwing an NPE. This gives improper information to the user/developper.
> I propose that it throws a new UnknownFactFieldException giving improved information giving good hints for debugging or enabling specific exception management.
> I will provide shortly a pull-request with a possible fix.
