Is "exception" the best choice of name for this library?
I think the functionality of this library may be too specific to be given such a general name.
This was my main concern with the library, as well. As it stands, the library consists primarily of a method for attaching data to objects at runtime. This is a neat, well-thought-out capability that I can imagine would be useful outside the realm of exceptions. If this library were renamed (though a really good name isn't coming to mind right now), it could of course still be used in any future boost exception lib. -- Austin Bingham
