Since the pull request aims to refactor and to clean the code I think it
makes sense. Speaking of unchecked exceptions in 'throws' clause they are
backward compatible since the developers don't need either catch or declare
them. I may have missed something in terms of backward compatibility and if you
don't you mind pointing it out to me I would appreciate it.---
