Convert a local-language Exception to an English E

问题:

Currentlly I'm using this approach to convert an exception to an exception that will translate the original exception message to English language:

C#:

[DebuggerStepThrough()]
[Extension()]
public Exception ToEnglish<T>(T ex) where T : Exception
{

    CultureInfo oldCI = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture;
    Exception exEng = default(Exception);

    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US");

    // Instance Exception one time to retrieve an English message.
    exEng = (Exception)Activator.CreateInstance(ex.GetType);

    // Instance Exception a second time to pass additional parameters to its constructor.
    exEng = (Exception)Activator.CreateInstance(ex.GetType, new object[] {
        exEng.Message,
        ex
    });

    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = oldCI;

    return exEng;

}

Vb.Net:

<DebuggerStepThrough>
<Extension>
Public Function ToEnglish(Of T As Exception)(ByVal ex As T) As Exception

    Dim oldCI As CultureInfo = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture
    Dim exEng As Exception

    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US")

    ' Instance Exception one time to retrieve an English message.
    exEng = DirectCast(Activator.CreateInstance(ex.[GetType]), Exception)

    ' Instance Exception a second time to pass additional parameters to its constructor.
    exEng = DirectCast(Activator.CreateInstance(ex.[GetType], New Object() {exEng.Message, ex}), Exception)

    Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = oldCI

    Return exEng

End Function

( I'm aware that some exception messages are only partially defined in English )

However, I'm not totally satisfied with the results, because firstlly I'm not returning the same runtime type, and secondlly the stack-trace of the resulting exception is empty so I need to to preserve the info of the original exception in the InnerException property of the resulting exception.

Then, I would like to improve the function to meet there requeriments:

    1. Return an Exception of the same Type that passed to the type-parameter (eg. FileNotFoundException).
    1. In the resulting exception, re-create/preserve the stack-trace (and TargetSite property), in English language.

I'm not really sure if point number 2 could be accomplished because possible stack limitations?, anyways I'm asking to know, how I could do both things?.
