Assertions with info about which class/property is invalid

I have extended webmozart/assert's code for my use case in which I want to know more detailed information about assertions. I do assertions inside my entities and would always like to know which entity and which property is invalid.
The implementation looks like this:
// Pass a string as "root" identifier
Assert::that('User', 'name', $nameValue)
->startsWith('Test')
->notEmpty();
// Or pass the object
Assert::that($user, 'name', $nameValue)
->startsWith('Test')
->notEmpty();
As you can see, I implemented an "assertion chain" here as well to avoid repeating the ::that(..)
call.
Is this something that you can imagine being integrated into this library, or is this use case too specific? If yes, I'd be open to provide a PR.
