> Reading the docs, we would have been throwing a RuntimeException anyways
(because the checked exception is not capable of being thrown by our thrift RPC
methods), so java would have wrapped it in a UndeclaredThrowableException.
I don't think this is 100% clear. What the code does at runtime would be
equivalent to what this patch changes (this patch is just more clear). The
testing I did was unable to force a failure, but I am not convinced if this is
because I didn't figure out how to test it good enough.
