Keep the variable name and path through references
> for me the most important feature is to keep track of the context/scope of where the validation process is at when the exception is thrown. so given: a schema:

article.json
```{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
  "type" : "object",
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "properties": {
    "teaser" : { "$ref": "intro.json" },
    "prolog" : { "$ref": "intro.json" }
  }
}
```
when the error occurs during the prolog validation, the exception contains an attribute with value `article.prolog.....`  about where it happened (like the jsonschema library does).
