@netomi: "I would prefer to explicitly throw the checked exception wrapped
in a RuntimeException as guava does in its Throwables class."
That is (IMO) a valid point. OTOH, I'd bet my house on the fact that there
are users out there who will take a different stance.
In other words: That doesn't mean that we must reject the stuff. If we
document, what problems may, or may not, arise, then let the users decide
whether to use that stuff or not.
And, besides: Nothing prevents us to add another method, which will use an
UndeclaredThrowableException, or whatever, as a wrapper, and which you and me
will likely prefer.
