ApiProblem.name is read only :(

[peritus]

Hey,

I'm using ApiProblem.create() to create custom API problems. I then (among other things) send them to @getsentry for further internal error reporting.

To not have all errors that are the result of an ApiProblem to be grouped under "HTTP-Problem", I tried to set the .name property, however I get

TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'name' of function

mostly because of this line:

node-api-problem/lib/apiProblem.js

Line 44 in 4071cfd

constant(this, 'name', 'HTTP-Problem', true);

Is there a specific reason for that lock-down on writable properties ?

Could name be a parameter, so that users of this lib have some influence over

HTTP-Problem: [400] my error description > https://problems.example.com/myerror12'

to say

MyCustomError: [400] my error description > https://problems.example.com/myerror12'

when stringifying ?

Or is there another way (apart from the documented new (ApiProblem.create())) to subclass ApiProblem ?
