It is common practice among Java developers to wrap exceptions.  See the SAX
API's SaxException for an example.  If Throwable had a method
getNextException() or getWrappedException() or maybe getWrappedThrowable(),
it would make dealing with wrapped exceptions in a generic way very easy.

The default implementation in Throwable would return null.
So all we are asking for is three lines in java.lang.Throwable:

public Throwable getWrappedThrowable(){
  return null;
}


(or getWrappedException() equivalent)
