Thinking about having Exceptions raising everywhere sounds like my next biggest nightmare in PEAR ;-)

The same things have been discussed on internals, raising an exception in every case where a function does not do what you expect can lead to troubles...

Where are these threads on internals where people are saying you shouldn't use exceptions for errors? (People keep referring to them on this list, please post a link so that the rest of us can read these discussions too.) Obviously you shouldn't abuse exceptions, but that's just as true of return-code base error handling (or anything else, for that matter). Hans
