When, I ask for the construction of an object and something goes wrong, I find it reasonable for the object not to get constructed. When compared to the C++ world, the situation after the exception being thrown from the constructor is very peaceful. As you pointed out, if you catch the exception (so you *know* construction wasn't successful), you get, instead of an object, a null reference. I really do not see the problem.
