By passing all of the arguments to the base class and overriding the
__str__ method when we want a different "human readable" message that
isn't just printing the list of arguments, we can ensure that all custom
error classes have a reasonable __repr__ implementation.

In the case of ExecuteError, the pseudo-field that isn't actually
correlated to an input argument can be re-imagined as a read-only
property; this forces consistency in the class and makes the repr output
more obviously correct.
