Isn't that like saying I want your RuntimeExceptions to be checked
Exceptions?  There is actually more to the issue here though as
well....

The problem I am running into though is we have a ServletFilter for
security purposes used by all our apps.  Developers don't add throws
GwtSessionTimeout as none of the methods really throw this
exception...it is marshalled by the ServletFilter when the session
times out but that fails when developers forget to add "throws
GwtSessionTimeout" to their method which i would prefer they would not
need that statement at all especially since they don't throw that
exception.

Forcing people to declare RuntimeExceptions we want noticed by the GWT
client is like forcing us to have checked Exceptions....ie. forcing me
to do a throws GwtSessionTimeout means I mine as well not have
RuntimeExceptions and only have checked exceptions......In some
regards, I almost prefer C# here where they are all Runtime and no
checked exceptions.

thanks,
Dean
