Understood on the exceptions, its more encouragement then anything else.

On the standard for exceptions, go back in history and take a look. We had a
long conversation like a month ago on the topic. I am not too worried about
ciconia or any other app that is not intended to be consumed as a library. I
am more concerned about erlware_commons and those that are designed to be
consumed as libraries. I think having consumable standard well documented
exceptions are important there.
