BTW, this is the same issue as with Eiffel's "contracts" and Ada's
assertions. The problem is misuse of exceptions:

1. IF the exception is a part of the contracts <=> the client is supposed
to handle it, THEN it must be checked.

2. IF no client can handle it, THEN it shall not be, the program must
rather abort itself or break into the debugger.
