I won't play the game of changing the severity again for this minor (or better
wishlist) issue. The hint to get started is: just grep for InvalidCast in the
jit sources, change all the relevant functions to take the source type and the
cast type, change all the architectures' code to use the new interface, add an
helper method that creates the exception from the new info, add an option that
avoids all the bloat that the proposed change introduces.
If this was trivial to add it would have been added long ago. It's a lot of
work for very little benefit (and it would be wasted work as it would need to
be redone for the linear branch anyway).
