The Rollbar PHP SDK (just as an example) allows for logging arbitrary messages to Rollbar:

You can also send Rollbar log-like messages:

<?php
use Rollbar\Rollbar;
use Rollbar\Payload\Level;

Rollbar::log(Level::WARNING, 'could not connect to mysql server');
Rollbar::log(
    Level::INFO, 
    'Here is a message with some additional data',
    array('x' => 10, 'code' => 'blue')
);

This is really useful for certain kinds of remote debugging situations, e.g. when you haven't been able to reproduce a production error yet and need more contextual information.

What I'd like to be able to do in Clojure is something like:

(rollcage/info "some message")
,,,
(rollcage/debug "another message with some context" {:more "context"})

As far as I can tell, though, this would require a change to the API of the core/notify fn, which always expects a Throwable. I think it makes sense to have the Rollcage internals know what to do with Throwable instances when it sees them, but the current API seems to preclude certain valid use-cases of the wider Rollbar API. Or maybe I'm missing something?

Edit: to be clear, I'm happy to submit a PR for widening the API, but I thought it would be best to discuss what that wider API would look first. Thoughts?

Thanks!
