The idea is that you check for things that are not exceptional, and for everything else an error is thrown.
This is a new idea to this thread and I find it unwise.
as far as i understood the existing boost::error_code documentation this is actually exactly why the whole library exists...to enable exception-free handling of 'unwanted' but non-exceptional cases/situations... -- "That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history."
