Just make your own and throw it. I'm in favor of revamping the SPL structures and exceptions
but even then I wouldn't include NotImplementedException; it's a sign that your interface
or parent class isn't designed properly.

RuntimeException can be pretty much anything. It is very disambigous.
While NotImplementedException is very specific and explicitly conveys that this method is not
implemented.
If you get a RuntimeException you have no idea what is going on or why you're getting it.
If you get a NotImplementedException then you know exactly why you got it.
It is also available in many other languages;
Python - http://docs.python.org/2/library/exceptions.html#exceptions.NotImplementedError
Ruby - http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-1.9.3/NotImplementedError.html
.NET Framework - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.notimplementedexception%28v=vs.110%29.aspx
Java - http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/UnsupportedOperationException.html

What's the purpose of such exception? What's its advantage over pure
\RuntimeException?
