/**
 * Checked exception that indicates errors in client code and tries to supply extra information about the context it occurred in.
 * 
 * Generally, client need to pass own error information/exceptions from within implementations of the callback methods they supply. 
 * However, there's no straightforward way to alter throws clause for these methods, and alternatives like generic {@link Exception} or
 * library's own {@link HgException} are rather obscure. Suggested approach is to wrap whatever exception user code produces with
 * {@link RuntimeException} subclass, {@link Wrap}. Then, unwrap and re-throw with checked {@link HgCallbackTargetException}. 
 * 
 * FIXME REVISIT perhaps, shall just throw HgCallbackTargetException from any handler, and do not catch anything in commands at all?
