Okay. But fix the "http://www.boost.org/more/error_handling.html";, please.

Subject: std0X::expected_exception<T>()

"....
 template<class T> bool expected_exception() throw();
 Returns: true if matching handler is found.
 Notes: if expected_exception<T>() returns false then 
 throwing T (at the point of expected_exception<T>() 
 invocation) will result in the invocation of unexpected() 
 handler with an exception consider caught. In effect,
 (in this new edition of this International Standard:-)

     if (!std::expected_exception<T>()) {
       throw T(/*...*/);
     }

 is equivalent to:

     if (!std::expected_exception<T>()) {
       try {
         throw T(/*...*/);
       }
       catch(const T&) {
         std::unexpected();
       }
     }
 ...."


Would you vote against it? Why?

TIA.

Well, "the context" is this:
